TABLE OF CONTENTS

Step 1. Given information.

An angle of $\frac{5 π}{3}$ and we have to convert it in degrees

Step 2. Concept used.

To translate a radian into degrees, multiply the given angle by $\frac{180}{π}$ .

The answer will be in degrees.

Step 3. Calculation.

Here is the calculation-

$1 = \frac{180^{\circ}}{π} \frac{5 π}{3} = \frac{180}{π} \times \frac{5 π}{3} \Rightarrow 300^{\circ}$
