Solution

To find the coterminal angle, we need to add or subtract multiples of 2π until we get an angle that falls within the desired range of 0 ≤ θ < 2π.

Given angle is -21π/4.

Step 1: Convert the angle to positive by adding 2π. Since we're dealing with fractions, it's easier to use 8π/4 (which is equal to 2π) instead.

-21π/4 + 8π/4 = -13π/4

This is still negative, so we need to add 2π again.

-13π/4 + 8π/4 = -5π/4

Still negative, so add 2π once more.

-5π/4 + 8π/4 = 3π/4

Now we have a positive angle that falls within the desired range, so 3π/4 is the coterminal angle.

Step 2: Determine the quadrant.

The angle 3π/4 lies in the second quadrant.

Step 3: Find the reference angle.

The reference angle is the acute angle that the terminal side of the given angle makes with the x-axis. In the second quadrant, the reference angle is π - θ.

π - 3π/4 = π/4

So, the reference angle is π/4.
