Yes. Sometimes in mathematics, it is useful to have negative angles. You can increase or decrease an angle by 360 degrees (or 2*pi radians) without changing the characteristics of the angle. Thus, for example, an angle of 30 degrees is equivalent to an angle of -330 degrees.
To find the reference angle for negative 200 degrees, first convert it to a positive angle by adding 360 degrees, resulting in 160 degrees. The reference angle is then found by subtracting this angle from 180 degrees, yielding a reference angle of 20 degrees. Thus, the reference angle for negative 200 degrees is 20 degrees.
To find the reference angle for a negative angle, first convert the negative angle to its positive equivalent by adding 360 degrees (or (2\pi) radians) until the angle is positive. Once you have the positive angle, determine the reference angle by finding the angle's position in relation to the nearest x-axis (0°, 180°, or 360°). The reference angle is the acute angle formed between the terminal side of the angle and the x-axis. For angles in the second and third quadrants, subtract the angle from 180° or 360°, respectively.
no because the only way degrees can be negative is in temperature.
An angle is a measure of turn. the amount of turn is the magnitude, measured in degrees, and direction of turn can be clockwise or anti-clockwise. A positive angle turns in an anti-clockwise direction while a negative angle turns in a clockwise direction.
Yes, although it may seem strange. Conventionally, on a Cartesian plane, angles are measured in an anticlockwise dirction, from the x-axis. Consequently, an angle in the clockwise direction could be considered a negative angle. It might be simpler to think of an angle of 359 degrees as one of -1 degrees, instead. Sometimes you need to subtract one angle from another and in that context, a negative measure for the angle is implicit.
The cosine function is an even function which means that cos(-x) = cos(x). So, if cos of an angle is positive, then the cos of the negative of that angle is positive and if cos of an angle is negative, then the cos of the negative of that angle is negaitive.
To find the complement of a negative angle, you first need to determine its positive equivalent by adding 360 degrees to the negative angle. Once you have the positive angle, you can then find its complement by subtracting the angle from 90 degrees. This will give you the complement of the negative angle in the range of 0 to 90 degrees.
This is a negative angle.
positive and negative angles of 87 degrees
Certainly. A negative angle is simply clockwise instead of counterclockwise from the zero angle, but this is usually not indicated as such on a drawing.
Better for what?

A non negative angle which is less than 90 degrees is an acute angle. So, Zero degree is an acute angle.
