What fraction is 270 degrees?

270 is an integer and so it would be sensible to represent it as an integer: 270 degrees. There is no requirement in the question to change the measurement unit, and if you do want that then you will need to specify the required unit. I suggest the answer should be 3*pi/2 radians.


How do you draw angles greater than 180?

First, if the angle is 360° or more, find the remainder of the angle divided by 360 - this is as 360° represents a full turn. If you have a 360° protractor just measure off the angle. If you only have a 180° protractor, then there are two ways it can be done as the protractor is marked so that 0° - 180° can be measured from either end of the base line: Method 1: excess over 180° 1) Subtract 180° from the angle to get the excess over 180°. 2) Place the protractor on the line, centred on the vertex of the angle on the left of the line, with the top 0°/180° mark on the line. 3) Measure the excess over 180° calculated in step 1 from the bottom 0° mark of the protractor. 4) Draw in the second angle arm - the reflex angle (measured clockwise) is as required. Method 2: acute/obtuse angle of the reflex angle to complete a full turn 1) Subtract the angle from 360° to get the angle which completes the full turn 2)Place the protractor on the line, centred on the angle vertex on the left of the line, with the top 0°/180° mark on the line. 3) Measure the angle to complete the full turn calculated in step 1 from the top 0° mark of the protractor (on the line). 4) Draw in the second angle arm - the reflex angle (measured clockwise) is as required. The above assume a clockwise angle is being drawn from a vertical line with the angle vertex at the bottom. For anticlockwise angles, place the protractor on the right of the line. For a non-vertical line [mentally] rotate the paper so that the first arm of the angle is vertical with the angle vertex at the bottom.


What are two kinds of measurement in trigonometry?

distance and angle


What is 5 miles in radian?

A mile is an obsolete unit of distance and the radian is a unit for angles !


What is the formula of a cube?

Base times Width times height. Take the measurement of the base, multiply it by the measurement of the width and multiply it all again by the measurement of the height. B*W*H=Cube another way of saying it: volume: multiply the length times the length times the length. Surface area: length times width times six.
