Answer 2

Answer:

True  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Statement - 'A degree is larger than 30 arc minutes'.

To find : True or False ?

Solution :

We know that,

1 degree is $1^\circ=\frac{1}{360}$ of a circle

1 arc minute is $1^'=(\frac{1}{60})^\circ$ of degree.

So, 30 arc minutes is $30^'=(\frac{30}{60})^\circ$ of degree.

30 arc minutes is $30^'=(\frac{1}{2})^\circ$ of degree.

Which clearly means,

$1^\circ>(\frac{1}{2})^\circ$

$1^\circ>30^'$

Therefore, The given statement is true.

'A degree is larger than 30 arc minutes'.
