You can put this solution on YOUR website! It helps to draw the angle on
a unit circle, approximately
------------------------
1)
145 degrees is 35 degrees short
of 180 degrees
( )
and
I can use radian / degrees
as a multiplier without changing values
--------------------
2)
Note that 1' is degree = ( fraction of a degree )x( radians/degree )
and
-----------------------------------
3)
4" is of a degree (
and
and
adding up: ( more decimal points available )
--------------
check my math
you can convert degrees and minutes into degrees by dividing the minutes by 60 and adding them to the degrees.
you can convert degrees and minutes and seconds into degrees by dividing the minutes by 60 and adding them to the degrees and then dividing the seconds by 3600 and adding them to the degrees.
problem 1:
145 degrees * pi / 180 = .8055555... * pi radians.
