Answer:
13. 20°
14. 15°
15. 50°
Step-by-step explanation:
From a mathematical point of view, the reference angle is the smaller of α and (180°-α), where α = θ mod 180°.
That is, add or subtract multiples of 180° until the result is in the range 0–180°. Then choose the smaller of the angle and its supplement.
It is convenient to let a spreadsheet calculate these when you have a bunch of them.
__
From a geometrical point of view, the reference angle is the positive angle between the terminal ray and the nearest x-axis.
__
For the angles here, the reference angles (in degrees) are shown in the attachment.
