If θ is in the second quadrant and its reference angle is π/9, what is the principal radian value of θ?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 8π/9

A reference angle is the positive acute angle between a terminal arm and the nearest x-axis. In the second quadrant, the standard angle is measured from the positive x-axis up to a point before π, so the angle equals π minus its reference angle. Let α = π/9. Then θ = π − α = π − π/9 = 8π/9. This value lies between π/2 and π, confirming that it is in the second quadrant. It also lies in the usual principal interval 0 ≤ θ < 2π, so no further reduction is required. Hence option A is correct. The value 10π/9 lies in the third quadrant, 17π/9 lies in the fourth quadrant, and 7π/9 does not equal π − π/9. The quadrant information is what determines whether the reference angle is added to or subtracted from π.
