Question 8 • Mathematics III

An angle measuring 468 n degrees is in standard position. For which value of n will the terminal side fall on the x -axis?

Answer
A
n is equal to 5
B
n is equal to 7
C
n is equal to 6
D
n is equal to 4

Explanation

A terminal side lies on the x-axis when the angle is a multiple of 180°. For n = 5, the angle is 468 × 5 = 2340°, and 2340° = 13 × 180°, so its terminal side lies on the x-axis. Therefore, the correct choice is “n is equal to 5.”
