7π/12\displaystyle 7\pi/12 radians is equal to how many degrees? a) 84∘84^{\circ} b) 105∘105^{\circ} c) 75∘75^{\circ} d) 210∘210^{\circ}
Intuitive explanation

The key is remembering that π\pi radians equals 180°, so you can set up a simple proportion: radians and degrees are directly proportional. Multiply your radian measure by 180°π\frac{180°}{\pi} to convert. This works because you're essentially replacing π\pi with its degree equivalent and simplifying the fraction.
