We have to convert this angle measure from radians to degrees.

To do that we take into account that π radians is equivalent to 180°.

So we can convert the measure from radians to degrees by multiplying by the factor (180°/π).

Then, if the angle is 7π/11, we can express it in degrees as:


(7\pi)/(11)\cdot((180\degree)/(\pi))=(7\cdot180\degree)/(11)\approx114.55\degree

NOTE: to convert from degrees to radians, we use the same factor but inverted: we multiply by π/180.

Answer: 114.55°
