Answer

$$ - {45^ \circ }$$

Work Step by Step

$$\eqalign{ & - \frac{\pi }{4}{\text{radians}} \cr & {\text{we know that 1 radian}} = \left( {\frac{{{{180}^ \circ }}}{\pi }} \right){\text{. }}\left( {{\text{see}}\,\,{\text{page 668}}} \right){\text{ Then}}{\text{,}} \cr & - \frac{\pi }{4}{\text{radians}} = - \frac{\pi }{4}\left( {\frac{{{{180}^ \circ }}}{\pi }} \right) \cr & {\text{multiplying}} \cr & - \frac{\pi }{4}{\text{radians}} = \frac{{ - \left( {{{180}^ \circ }} \right)}}{4} \cr & - \frac{\pi }{4}{\text{radians}} = - {45^ \circ } \cr} $$
