What is -48.27 degrees in radians.?

Answer 1

To convert multiply by pi/180.

-48.27pi/180 = -.2682pi
or -.8425 radians

If you don't feel comfortable with negative radians you can either convert the degrees before you begin (by adding 360) or convert your answer after ward. Simply add: 2pi + (-.8425) = 5.4407radians



If you need to switch from radians to degrees, multiply by 180/pi.

Answer 2

First of all, that your given angle is in the FOURTH Quadrant, because of the negative sign and less than 90 degrees.

Also, remember that 180 degrees is 3.14 radians. So 90 degrees is 1.57 radians. Since your value is less than 90 expect it to be less than1.57 radians.

Thus, 48.27 degrees x 3.14 radians/180 degrees = 0.8420 radians.

Now attach the negative to show the direction.

-.8420 radians.

Answer 3

One revolution is 2 times pie (3.14159 *2), One revolution is 360 degrees, so you can work it out. There is also a measure of a 'solid angle' called a 'steradian.'. This is defined as the area of part of a sphere whose center is at the given point, divided by R*R .(Surface area of sphere = 4* pie / R^2.

Answer 4

First of all -48.27 degrees = (360-48.27) = 311.73 degrees

311.73 degrees * (pi rads / 180 degrees) = 311.73pi/180 =
5.44 radians
