-4.71 rad

Explanation:

To convert degrees to Radians we have the formula:
Radians = Degrees is #pi/180∘#

What we do here is multiply -270∘ with the formula.
#(-270∘)(pi/180∘)#

After that, reduce -270 and 180. Their GCF is 90.
#(-3∘)(pi/2∘)#

Multiply them and you will get #"-3(3.14)"/2#

Now multiply and divide.
-3 divided by 2 is -1.5

So (-1.5)(3.14) is equal to -4.71 rad.

-270∘ = -4.71 radians
