### Identifying Coterminal Angles

#### Problem Statement:
An angle measures \(150^\circ\). Which of the following is **not** a coterminal angle measure?

1. \( -210^\circ \)
2. \( 510^\circ \)
3. \( \frac{\pi}{6} \)
4. \( \frac{5\pi}{6} \)

#### Explanation of Coterminal Angles:

Coterminal angles are angles that, when drawn in standard position (having the initial side along the positive x-axis), share the same terminal side. These angles differ by an integer multiple of \(360^\circ\), or \(2\pi\) radians.

To find out if two angles are coterminal, you can periodically add or subtract \(360^\circ\) (or \(2\pi\) radians) until you get into the standard \(0^\circ\) to \(360^\circ\) range.

#### Option Analysis:

1. **For \( -210^\circ \)**:
   Adding \(360^\circ\) to \( -210^\circ \):

   \[
   -210^\circ + 360^\circ = 150^\circ
   \]

   Hence, \(-210^\circ\) is coterminal with \(150^\circ\).

2. **For \( 510^\circ \)**:
   Subtracting \(360^\circ\) from \(510^\circ\):

   \[
   510^\circ - 360^\circ = 150^\circ
   \]

   Therefore, \(510^\circ\) is coterminal with \(150^\circ\).

3. **For \( \frac{\pi}{6} \)**:
   Converting radians to degrees:

   \[
   \frac{\pi}{6} \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = 30^\circ
   \]

   Since \(30^\circ\) is not coterminal with \(150^\circ\), \(\frac{\pi}{6}\) is not a coterminal angle.

4. **For \( \frac{5\pi}{6} \)**:
   Converting radians to degrees:

   \[
   \frac{5\pi}{6} \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = 150^\circ
   \]

   Therefore, \(\frac{5
