Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option C

270°

Solution :

The correct option is 270°.

To convert an angle from radians to degrees, we use the conversion factor based on the relationship that π radians is equal to 180 degrees.

The conversion formula is:

Angle in degrees=Angle in radians×180°π

Given the angle in radians as 3π2, we substitute it into the formula:

Angle in degrees=3π2×180°π

Now, simplify the expression step-by-step:
1. Cancel out π from both the numerator and denominator:
=32×180°
2. Divide 180° by 2:
=3×90°
3. Multiply 3 by 90°:
=270°

Therefore, 3π2 radians is equal to 270°.
