Convert from Degrees to Radians

$12$

Step 1

To convert degrees to radians, multiply by $\frac{π}{180 °}$ , since a full circle is $360 °$ or $2 π$ radians.

$12 ° \cdot \frac{π}{180 °}$ radians

Step 2

Cancel the common factor of $12$ .

Step 2.1

Factor $12$ out of $180$ .

$12 \cdot \frac{π}{12 (15)}$ radians

Step 2.2

Cancel the common factor.

$12 \cdot \frac{π}{12 \cdot 15}$ radians

Step 2.3

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{π}{15}$ radians
