Explanation:

Step1: Recall coterminal - angle formula

Coterminal angles are given by $\theta\pm 2k\pi$, where $k$ is an integer. We want to find $k$ such that $0\leq\theta + 2k\pi\leq2\pi$. Let $\theta=\frac{39}{8}\pi$. Then we set up the inequality $0\leq\frac{39}{8}\pi+ 2k\pi\leq2\pi$.

Step2: Solve the left - hand side of the inequality for $k$

First, solve $0\leq\frac{39}{8}\pi+2k\pi$.

Step3: Solve the right - hand side of the inequality for $k$

Next, solve $\frac{39}{8}\pi+2k\pi\leq2\pi$.

Since $k$ is an integer, $k = - 2$.

Step4: Calculate the coterminal angle

Substitute $k=-2$ into $\theta + 2k\pi$.

Answer:

$\frac{7}{8}\pi$
