AIME 2002b Problem 10

  • Paper
  • Answer

While finding the sine of a certain angle, an absent-minded professor failed to notice that his calculator was not in the correct angular mode. He was lucky to get the right answer. The two least positive real values of xx for which the sine of xx degrees is the same as the sine of xx radians are mπn−π\frac{m\pi}{n-\pi} and pπq+π\frac{p\pi}{q+\pi}, where mm, nn, pp, and qq are positive integers. Find m+n+p+qm+n+p+q.
