The answer is #-5/4pi# radians.

Explanation:

To convert degrees to radians, multiply the degree value by #pi/(180º)#:

#-225cancelº*pi/(180cancelº)#

#(-225pi)/180#

#-5/4pi = -1.25pi ~~-3.926#

#-(5pi)/4#

Explanation:

It's very worth memorizing all of the #45^circ# angles in radians, which become the #pi/4# angles.

#45^circ to pi/4#
#135^circ to (3pi)/4#
#225^circ to (5pi)/4#
#315^circ to (7pi)/4#

Having these memorized tells you quickly that #-225 to -(5pi)/4#.

You can also convert any degree measure to radians by multiplying it by #pi/180#.
