Since one complete circle is 360 degrees and $\"2pi\"$ radians,
\n" ); document.write( "360 degrees = $\"2pi\"$ radians
\n" ); document.write( "Dividing both sides by 360 we get:
\n" ); document.write( "1 degree = $\"2pi%2F360+=+pi%2F180\"$ radians
\n" ); document.write( "This tells us that to convert degrees to radians, multiply the degrees by $\"pi%2F180\"$ :
\n" ); document.write( "-60 degrees * $\"pi%2F180\"$ radians per degree = $\"%28-60pi%29%2F180+=+%28-pi%29%2F3\"$ radians
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
