Q. Convert the following angle from degrees to radians. Express your answer in simplest form.15∘Answer:
Conversion Factor: To convert degrees to radians, we use the conversion factor that π radians is equivalent to 180 degrees. The formula to convert degrees to radians is given by multiplying the degree measure by π/180.
Apply Formula: Now, we apply the formula to convert 15 degrees to radians.15 degrees ×(π/180)=18015π
Simplify Fraction: We can simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 15 in this case.(18015π)÷(1515)=12π
