Question

What is the equivalent of pi over 6 radians in degrees?

Answer 1

To find the answer to this problem, you can use the unit circle to see that pi over 6 radians is equal to 30°

Another way is to use the equation: degrees = radians • (180 over pi)

In this example, plugging in the radians portion of the equation gives us: degrees = (pi over 6) • (180 over pi), which will become degrees = (180pi over 6pi)

Simplify and pi cancels out to give us degrees = 30

Answer: 30°
