If (2.5) complete revolutions are made, what is the total angle?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: \(900^\circ\)
One complete revolution equals \(360^\circ\). Therefore, the angle for \(2.5\) revolutions is \(2.5\times360^\circ=900^\circ\). \(720^\circ\) represents only 2 complete revolutions, so it is not correct. Exam tip: To convert revolutions into degrees, multiply the number of revolutions by \(360^\circ\).
