Q. Convert the following angle from degrees to radians. Express your answer in simplest form.345∘Answer:
Set up conversion factor: To convert degrees to radians, we use the conversion factor that π radians is equivalent to 180 degrees. Therefore, we can set up the conversion as follows:radians=degrees×(180 degreesπ radians)
Plug in given angle: Now, we plug in the given angle of 345 degrees into the conversion formula:radians=345∘×(180π)
Simplify expression: Next, we simplify the expression by canceling out any common factors between the numerator and the denominator. In this case, both 345 and 180 can be divided by 15:radians=15345×(15180π)radians=23×(12π)
Multiply to get radians: Finally, we multiply the two numbers together to get the angle in radians:radians=23×12πradians=1223πThis is the simplest form of the angle in radians.
