Step 1.1

To convert radians to degrees, multiply by $\frac{180}{π}$ , since a full circle is $360 °$ or $2 π$ radians.

$(- π) \cdot \frac{180 °}{π}$

Step 1.2

Cancel the common factor of $π$ .

Step 1.2.1

Factor $π$ out of $- π$ .

$π \cdot - 1 \cdot \frac{180}{π}$

Step 1.2.2

Cancel the common factor.

$π \cdot - 1 \cdot \frac{180}{π}$

Step 1.2.3

Rewrite the expression.

$- 1 \cdot 180$

Step 1.3

Multiply $- 1$ by $180$ .

$- 180$

Step 1.4

Convert to a decimal.

$- 180 °$

Step 2

For angles smaller than $0 °$ , add $360 °$ to the angle until the angle is larger than $0 °$ .

$180$

Step 3

The angle is between the second and third quadrant.

Between Quadrant $2$ and $3$
