Radians are a unit of angular measurement based on the radius of a circle. One radian is defined as the angle that produces an arc equal in length to the radius. This unit differs from degrees, where a full circle is divided into 360 parts. Understanding how to convert between degrees and radians is essential, especially in fields like mathematics and physics. This guide provides formulas for converting angles, such as radians to degrees and vice versa, as well as explaining their applications in calculating the circumference and area of a circle.

What is a Radian? Radian: 1 Radian is the measure of the angle which creates an arc which is the same length as the radius.

Radians are typically reported in terms of π. - There are 2π radians in one full rotation around a circle
