Rotational and Reference Angles

What is the definition of a reference angle?

• The angle formed by the terminal side of an angle and the y-axis

• The angle formed by the terminal side of an angle and the z-axis

• The angle formed by the terminal side of an angle and the origin

• The acute angle between the terminal side of an angle and the x-axis in standard position.
