Problem:
Suppose that a and b are coterminal angles. Also suppose that c and d are coterminal angles. Is it true that a + c is coterminal with b + d. If true it needs to be proven. If not it needs a counterexample.

Im not sure what is meant by this exactly.

yes...

a = 120
b = -240

c = 180
d = -180

a+c = 300
b+d = 420

a+c is coterminal with b+d...

To find coterminal angles in Radians, subtract or add 2ㅠ (or an equivalent value). For this one you would add/subtract 6ㅠ/3. 17ㅠ/3 - 6ㅠ/3 = 11ㅠ/3 You could subtract 6ㅠ/3 again, to get 5ㅠ/3, which is another positive coterminal angle. Now subtract 6ㅠ/3 again. 5ㅠ/3 - 6ㅠ/3 = -ㅠ/3 Once again, you could keep subtracting 6ㅠ/3, but you don't need to.

< a = x and Thus Q.E.D
You will not be able to find a counterexample.
