Article moved to 2012 CEMC Gauss (Grade 8) Problems/Problem 8 due to being completed

This problem is kind of unclear because $0.2012$ is just a decimal number, but most of the answer choices are angles in degrees. The only option that’s a plain number interval is between $0$ and $\frac{1}{10}$, but since $0.2012$ is bigger than $0.1$, it doesn’t fit there.

The other choices are angles, so maybe the problem expects us to compare the decimal to the angle’s value in radians, but it doesn’t say that anywhere. Without explaining that, it’s confusing to know what the problem really wants.

So yeah, it feels like something is missing or left out.
