The correct Answer is:
To convert the angle \(5^\circ 37' 30''\) into radians, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert seconds to minutes 1. We know that \(1 \text{ minute} = 60 \text{ seconds}\). 2. Therefore, \(30''\) (seconds) can be converted to minutes: \[ 30'' = \frac{30}{60} = 0.5' \] ### Step 2: Add the minutes 3. Now, we can add this to the minutes: \[ 5^\circ 37' 30'' = 5^\circ 37' + 0.5' = 5^\circ 37.5' \] ### Step 3: Convert minutes to degrees 4. Next, we convert the total minutes into degrees. We know that \(1 \text{ degree} = 60 \text{ minutes}\): \[ 37.5' = \frac{37.5}{60} = 0.625^\circ \] 5. Therefore, we can express the angle in degrees: \[ 5^\circ + 0.625^\circ = 5.625^\circ \] ### Step 4: Convert degrees to radians 6. To convert degrees to radians, we use the conversion factor \(\frac{\pi \text{ radians}}{180^\circ}\): \[ \text{Radians} = 5.625^\circ \times \frac{\pi}{180} \] ### Step 5: Simplify the expression 7. Now, we calculate: \[ \text{Radians} = \frac{5.625 \pi}{180} \] To simplify \(5.625\): \[ 5.625 = \frac{5625}{1000} = \frac{225}{40} = \frac{45}{8} \] Thus, \[ \text{Radians} = \frac{45 \pi}{8 \times 180} = \frac{45 \pi}{1440} \] ### Step 6: Further simplification 8. Simplifying \(\frac{45}{1440}\): \[ \frac{45}{1440} = \frac{1}{32} \] Therefore, \[ \text{Radians} = \frac{\pi}{32} \] ### Final Answer The radian measure of \(5^\circ 37' 30''\) is: \[ \frac{\pi}{32} \text{ radians} \] ---
