( 5π/3 ) radians = 300°
Further explanation
Firstly , let us learn about trigonometry in mathematics.
Suppose the ΔABC is a right triangle and ∠A is 90°.
sin ∠A = opposite / hypotenuse
cos ∠A = adjacent / hypotenuse
tan ∠A = opposite / adjacent
There are several trigonometric identities that need to be recalled, i.e.
\(cosec ~ A = \frac{1}{sin ~ A}\)
\(sec ~ A = \frac{1}{cos ~ A}\)
\(cot ~ A = \frac{1}{tan ~ A}\)
\(tan ~ A = \frac{sin ~ A}{cos ~ A}\)
Let us now tackle the problem!
There are several units for angles for example :
1 revolution = 360°
2π radian = 360°
1 radian = (180/π)°
If we would like to convert (5π/3) radians into degrees , then :
\(1 ~ rad = ( \frac{180}{\pi} )^o\)
\(\frac{5 \pi}{3} ~ rad = ( \frac{5 \pi}{3} \times \frac{180}{\pi} )^o\)
\(\frac{5 \pi}{3} ~ rad = ( \frac{900 {\pi}}{3 \pi} )^o\)
\(\large {\boxed {\frac{5 \pi}{3} ~ rad = 300^o} }\)
