Find the radian measures corresponding to the following degree measures:
(i) 25°
(ii) -47°30′
(iii) 240°
(iv) 520°
Solution.
We have, 180° = π Radians

Ex 3.1 Class 11 Maths Question 3.
A wheel makes 360 revolutions in one minute. Through how many radians does it turn in one second ?
Solution.
Number of revolutions made by wheel in one minute = 360
As we know that, 1 Revolution = 27 π Radians
∴ 360 Revolutions = 720 π Radians
∴ In 1 minute wheel can make = 720 π Radians
⇒ In 60 seconds wheel can make = 720 π Radians
⇒ In 1 second wheel can make
\(\frac { 720\pi }{ 3 } Radians=12\pi \quad Radians\)
