Answer:

112°

Explanation:

When a point is rotated forming a complete circle then one rotation corresponds to 360° in the Cartesian plane. A negative angle indicates clockwise rotation while a positive angle rotates in the counterclockwise direction. Since, the angle show here is positive the rotation is counterclockwise.

So,

472° = 360°+90°+22°

One rotation, one fourth rotation then 22° rotation

So, the point would be the same as 90°+22° = 112°

Which is in the second quadrant.

a circle is 360 degrees

472 - 360 = 112

so it is the same as 112 degrees
