ANSWER

=(19)/(17) \pi

Step-by-step explanation

To find a positive angle that is coterminal with

- (15)/(17) \pi

We add multiples of 2π until we get a positive angle that is less than one revolution,


We add to obtain,



- (15)/(17) \pi + 2\pi


This simplifies to,


= (19)/(17) \pi

This is the first positive angle that is coterminal with

- (15)/(17) \pi


and is less than one revolution.
