well the 1st thing to know is \[\pi = 180\] so the 1st question is 8 x 180/5 = same process for the 2nd

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the first is 288degrees?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Second one is 41.53 degrees?

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

similar process for the last question if \[\pi = 180\] then 1 degree is \[1 = \frac{\pi}{180}\] so for the last question multiply both sides of the equation by 293 to get the answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

radians to degrees =radian times 180/pi degrees to radians =degree times pi/180

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

the answers for 1 and 2 seem ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm confused on the degrees one.

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

ok... so to get the radian measure.... 293 x pi / 180 = 1 radian is a about 57 degrees... so how many 57s in 293... thats what the question is asking... but if you do the above calculation you should get an answer... as 5. something

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5.11

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

yep... seems about the correct answer... hope it all makes some sense

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How do I convert it into radians though? Instead of a decimal.

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

the decimal answer is in radians.... its 5.11 radians.... or it can be just written as \[\frac{293 \pi}{180}\] but I don't think 293 and 180 have any common factors
