Suppose that a flip is a unit of angle measure where a rotation of 21 flips creates an arc that is a full circle. What is the approximate angle measure of 3.9 flips in degrees and radians?
Degrees?
Radians?
Solution
Since rotation of 21 flips create a full circle,
21 flips = 3600
3.9 flips = (360/21) * 3.9 = 66.85 ~ 670
1800 = pi radianss
670 = (pi/180( * 67 = 1.17 radians
So 3.9 flips = 67 degrees or 1.17 radians
