4.1 Radian and Degree Measure (part 2)
V. Evaluating degrees° minutes’ seconds” (D°M’S”)
A) The distance between two degrees (ex: 15°& 16°) can be
1) divided into minutes (60 min = 1°)
2) and seconds (3600 sec = 1°).
B) To convert into decimal form …
1) write the degree number (this is the whole #).
2) divide the minutes # by 60.
3) divide the seconds # by 3600 (60 • 60).
4) Add all three numbers you found together.
Example: 43°18’39” would be 43 + 18/60 + 39/3600 ≈ 43.31°

V. Evaluating degrees° minutes’ seconds” (D°M’S”)
C) To convert a decimal° into degrees-minutes-seconds …
1) Take the whole # part (the part in front of decimal).
a) It is your degrees number.
2) Take the decimal part and multiply it by 60.
a) Take the whole # part. It is your minutes.
b) There may be a decimal left over – its for seconds.
3) Take the left over decimal number & multiply it by 60.
a) Whatever number you get is your seconds.
Examples: Convert 40.3472° to degree-min-sec = 40 degrees
.3472 • 60 = 20.832
so 20 minutes
.832 • 60 = 49.92 seconds

VI. Arc Length.
A) An arc is a part of the circle (part of the circumference).
B) Formula: s = rθ
1) s is the arc length, r is the radius of the circle and
θ is the central angle (measured in radians).
2) If you are given degrees, you must convert to radians.
C) If you know any two of the three variables in the formula
you can solve for the missing value.
1) You can find the measure of the angle: θ = s/r.
2) You can find the measure of the radius: r = s/θ.
Example: Find arc length given 2π/3 radians and a radius of 6 ft.
s = (6 ft) ( 2π/3 )
s = 12.56 feet

VI. Area of a Sector of a Circle.
A) A sector is a piece of the interior of the circle (area).
B) Formula: A = ½ r2θ.
1) A is the Area, r is the radius, θ is the angle in radians.
C) If you know any two of the three variables in the formula
you can solve for the missing value.
