Convert 45∘45^\circ to radians in terms of π\pi.

Worked solution (try it first)
  1. π\pi radians is 180∘180^\circ, so to change degrees to radians multiply by π180\dfrac{\pi}{180}.
  2. 45×π180=45π18045 \times \dfrac{\pi}{180} = \dfrac{45\pi}{180}, and 45 goes into 180 four times, so this is π4\dfrac{\pi}{4}.
  3. So 45∘=π445^\circ = \dfrac{\pi}{4}, option C.
