Answer

(a) $20°=\frac{\pi}{9}rad$ (b) $-60°=-\frac{\pi}{3}rad$

Work Step by Step

$\pi~rad=180°$ $\frac{\pi~rad}{180°}=1$ (a) $20°=20°(\frac{\pi~rad}{180°})=\frac{20°(\pi~rad)}{180°}=\frac{20°\pi}{9(20°)}rad=\frac{\pi}{9}rad$ (b) $-60°=-60°(\frac{\pi~rad}{180°})=\frac{-60°(\pi~rad)}{180°}=\frac{-1(60°)\pi}{3(60°)}rad=-\frac{\pi}{3}rad$
