Answer: We have to sketch the angle and find the reference angle for the 20:


(8\pi)/(3)

The reference angle is an angle between the terminal side of the angle and the x-axis.


\theta_R=180^(\circ)-\theta

The provided angle is:


\begin{gathered} \theta=(8\pi)/(3)=480^(\circ) \\ \\ 480^(\circ)=480^(\circ)-360^(\circ)=120^(\circ) \\ \\ \theta=120^(\circ) \end{gathered}

Sketch of the angle:

Therefore the reference angle is:


\begin{gathered} \theta_R=180^(\circ)-\theta \\ \\ \theta_R=180^(\circ)-120^(\circ) \\ \\ \theta_R=60^(\circ) \end{gathered}
