Q. Which of the following radian measures is equal to 90 90^{\circ} ?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) π3 \frac{\pi}{3} radians\newlineB π4 \frac{\pi}{4} radians\newline(C) π2 \frac{\pi}{2} radians\newline(D) π6 \frac{\pi}{6} radians
  1. Set up proportion: To convert degrees to radians, we use the conversion factor that 180180 degrees is equal to π\pi radians. Therefore, to find the radian measure equivalent to 9090 degrees, we set up the proportion: (90 degrees)×(π radians/180 degrees)(90 \text{ degrees}) \times (\pi \text{ radians} / 180 \text{ degrees}).
  2. Simplify proportion: Simplify the proportion by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 9090: (9090)×(π180/90)=1×(π2)=π2(\frac{90}{90}) \times (\frac{\pi}{180/90}) = 1 \times (\frac{\pi}{2}) = \frac{\pi}{2} radians.
  3. Compare with options: Now we compare the result with the given options to find the correct one. π/2\pi/2 radians is the same as option (C)(C).
