Question

Will fan and medal.
Using complete sentences, define and compare radian measure to degree measure. In doing so, be sure to answer each of the following questions:

Answer 2

Answer 3

degrees measure the angle of rotation at the center

radians measure the length of the circumference traveled using the radius is a unit length

Answer 4

when we turn 360 degrees, we have traveled all the way around the circumfrence ....

360 degrees equates to 2pi r

Answer 5

when would it be appropriate to use degrees over Radian and vice versa

Answer 6

spose i need to turn something ... it depends on where im sitting as to what measure makes the most sense.

if im sitting at the middle, i turn by degrees (turn it by 45 degrees), i simply spin 45 degrees to aim it

if im pushing along the outside, radians make more sense, i need to move it pi/4 radiuses lengths to aim it.

ok thanks.
