Answer

$175^{\circ}20'$

Work Step by Step

Step 1: To convert from radians to degrees, we need to multiply the angle in radians by $(\frac{180^{\circ}}{\pi})$, $3.06$ radians$=3.06(\frac{180^{\circ}}{\pi})$ Step 2: Using a calculator, $3.06(\frac{180^{\circ}}{\pi})\approx175.32509^{\circ}$ Step 3: Converting decimal degrees to minutes, $0.32509(60')\approx20'$ Step 4: Therefore, $175.32509^{\circ}=175^{\circ}20'$
