In radian measures, pi is equivalent to 180 degrees. You want to find the radian measure of 56 degrees.
If pi = 180 degrees, then:
pi/180 = 1 degree (dividing both sides by 180)
56pi/180 = 56 degrees (multiplying both sides by 56)
14pi/45 = 56 degrees (reducing the fraction)
Answer: 56 degrees is equivalent to 14pi/45
