Since piradians = 180degrees, if you divide the given number of radians (29%28pi%29%2F37 by pi%2F180 you will convert them to degrees.
%2829%2Api%2F37%29%2F%28pi%2F180%29+=+%2829%2Api%2F37%29%2A%28180%2Fpi%29=highlight%28141.08%29degrees.

To change %2829pi%2F37%29 from radians to degrees:

Multiply by %28+%28%22180%B0%22%29%2Fpi+%29

%2829pi%2F37%29%28+%28%22180%B0%22%29%2Fpi+%29

%2829cross%28pi%29%2F37%29%28+%28%22180%B0%22%29%2Fcross%28pi%29+%29

%2829%28%22180%B0%22%29%29%2F37

%28%225220%B0%22%29%2F37

141%263%2F37%22%B0%22

or %22141.0810811%B0%22

or rounding to tenths of a degree:

%22141.1%B0%22, choice b).
