If D and R denote the degree and radian measure of an angle, then prove that D/180=R/pie

Sagot :

Given: D and R denote the degree and radian measure of an angle

To Determine: The prove that D/180=R/pie​

Solution

Please note that

[tex]180^0=\pi radians[/tex]

So

[tex]1^0=\frac{\pi}{180^}radian[/tex]

Then

[tex]\begin{gathered} D^0=D\times\frac{\pi}{180}radian \\ D^0=\frac{D\pi}{180}radians \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]\frac{D\pi}{180}=R[/tex]

Let us divide both sides by pie

[tex]\frac{D\pi}{180}\div\pi=R\div\pi[/tex]

[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{D\pi}{180}\times\frac{1}{\pi}=R\times\frac{1}{\pi} \\ \frac{D}{180}=\frac{R}{\pi} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Hence, the above help to prove that D/180 = R/pie
