The coterminal angle is 4pi/54π5

Explanation:

Please observe that 14pi/5 > 2pi14π5>2π, therefore, we subtract 2pi2π from 14pi/514π5:

14pi/5- 2pi= 14pi/5- 10pi/5 = 4pi/514π52π=14π510π5=4π5

(6pi)/56π5

Explanation:

Call t the angle (or arc).
t = (14pi)/5 = (4pi)/5 + (10pi)/5 = (4pi)/5 + 2pit=14π5=4π5+10π5=4π5+2π
t = (4pi)/5t=4π5
The co-terminal angle (or arc) to t = (4pi)/5t=4π5 is:
u = 2pi - (4pi)/5 = (10pi)/5 - (4pi)/5 = (6pi)/5u=2π4π5=10π54π5=6π5
