Solution
Solution Steps
To find coterminal angles, we add or subtract multiples of \(2\pi\) to the given angle. For a positive coterminal angle, add \(2\pi\) until the result is positive. For a negative coterminal angle, subtract \(2\pi\) until the result is negative.
Step 1: Finding the Positive Coterminal Angle
To find a positive angle coterminal with \( -\frac{5\pi}{4} \), we add \( 2\pi \) until the result is positive. The calculation yields:
\[
\text{Positive Coterminal Angle} = -\frac{5\pi}{4} + 2\pi = 2.3562 \quad (\text{rounded to four significant digits})
\]
Step 2: Finding the Negative Coterminal Angle
To find a negative angle coterminal with \( -\frac{5\pi}{4} \), we subtract \( 2\pi \) until the result is negative. The calculation yields:
\[
\text{Negative Coterminal Angle} = -\frac{5\pi}{4} - 2\pi = -10.2102 \quad (\text{rounded to four significant digits})
\]
Final Answer
The positive angle coterminal to \( -\frac{5\pi}{4} \) is \( 2.3562 \) and the negative angle is \( -10.2102 \). Thus, the answers are:
\[
\boxed{2.3562} \quad \text{and} \quad \boxed{-10.2102}
\]
