Question
**Question:**

A given angle has a measurement of 227 degrees. A coterminal angle to this could have which of the following measurements? Be sure to check all correct answers!

**Options:**

- A) 133°
- B) 947°
- C) -853°
- D) -47°
- E) 3827°
- F) 587°

**Explanation:**

To find coterminal angles, you can add or subtract full rotations (360 degrees) from the given angle. For a given angle θ, coterminal angles can be found using the formula:

θ + 360n

where n is any integer (positive, negative, or zero).

Let's determine if each of these options is coterminal with 227 degrees.

- **A) 133°**
  \[
  227° - 360° = -133°
  \]
  Since -133° is different from 133°, this is not a correct answer.

- **B) 947°**
  \[
  947° - 360° \times 2 = 227°
  \]
  Since 947° is coterminal with 227°, this is a correct answer.

- **C) -853°**
  \[
  -853° + 360° \times 3 = 227°
  \]
  Since -853° is coterminal with 227°, this is a correct answer.

- **D) -47°**
  \[
  -47° + 360° \times 1 = 313°
  \]
  Since 313° is different from 227°, this is not a correct answer.

- **E) 3827°**
  \[
  3827° - 360° \times 10 = 227°
  \]
  Since 3827° is coterminal with 227°, this is a correct answer.

- **F) 587°**
  \[
  587° - 360° = 227°
  \]
  Since 587° is coterminal with 227°, this is a correct answer.

Therefore, the correct answers are B) 947°, C) -853°, E) 3827°, and F) 587°.
