To convert radian measures to degrees, we use the conversion factor:
\[
1 \text{ radian} = \frac{180^\circ}{\pi}
\]

Given this, we multiply the radian measure by \(\frac{180^\circ}{\pi}\) to convert to degrees.

a. \(\frac{4\pi}{3}\) radians:
\[
\frac{4\pi}{3} \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = \frac{4 \times 180^\circ}{3} = \frac{720^\circ}{3} = 240^\circ
\]

b. \(\frac{7\pi}{4}\) radians:
\[
\frac{7\pi}{4} \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = \frac{7 \times 180^\circ}{4} = \frac{1260^\circ}{4} = 315^\circ
\]

c. \(\frac{\pi}{2}\) radians:
\[
\frac{\pi}{2} \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = \frac{180^\circ}{2} = 90^\circ
\]

d. \(-\frac{3\pi}{4}\) radians:
\[
-\frac{3\pi}{4} \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = -\frac{3 \times 180^\circ}{4} = -\frac{540^\circ}{4} = -135^\circ
\]

e. \(-\frac{2\pi}{3}\) radians:
\[
-\frac{2\pi}{3} \times \frac{180^\circ}{\pi} = -\frac{2 \times 180^\circ}{3} = -\frac{360^\circ}{3} = -120^\circ
\]

So the conversions are:
- \( \frac{4\pi}{3} \) radians = \( 240^\circ \)
- \( \frac{7\pi}{4} \) radians = \( 315^\circ \)
- \( \frac{\pi}{2} \) radians = \( 90^\circ \)
- \( -\frac{3\pi}{4} \) radians = \( -135^\circ \)
- \( -\frac{2\pi}{3} \) radians = \( -120^\circ \)
