Problem

An angle θ\theta measures −210∘-210^{\circ}. (a) Convert θ\theta to radian measure, giving your answer in the interval (−π, π](-\pi,\,\pi]. (b) Identify the quadrant in which the terminal side of θ\theta lies. (c) Find the exact coordinates of the point on the unit circle that corresponds to θ\theta. (d) Verify numerically that the coordinates found in part (c) satisfy the relation sin⁡2θ+cos⁡2θ=1\sin^{2} \theta + \cos^{2} \theta = 1.
