This converter allows you to convert degrees [°] to radians [rad] or radians [rad] to degrees [°]. Calculations are performed in both directions. The calculation result and the entered value are displayed with up to 20 decimal places for maximum accuracy.

1 degree [°] ≈ 0.0175 radians [rad]1 radian [rad] ≈ 57.2958 degrees [°]

Convert degrees to radians

There are two simple ways to convert degrees [°] to radians [rad]. In the first calculation method, the value in degrees [°] is divided by the rounded conversion factor of 57.2958. The second method multiplies the value in degrees [°] by the rounded conversion factor of 0.0175.

  • Radians [rad] ≈ degrees [°] ÷ 57.2958
  • Radians [rad] ≈ degrees [°] * 0.0175

However, rounded conversion values are only suitable for rough conversions, as rounding errors can occur in the calculation result. The most accurate conversion of degrees [°] to radians [rad] can be achieved using the following calculation method.

  • Radians [rad] = degrees [°] * π ÷ 180

Convert radians to degrees

Converting radians [rad] to degrees [°] is easy and can be done in two ways. The first method involves multiplication, in which the value in radians [rad] is multiplied by the rounded conversion factor of 57.2958. The second variant is a division. Here, the value in radians [rad] is divided by the rounded conversion factor of 0.0175.

  • Degrees [°] ≈ radians [rad] * 57.2958
  • Degrees [°] ≈ radians [rad] ÷ 0.0175

However, rounded conversion values do not allow for exact calculations because rounding errors can occur in the calculation result. The most accurate conversion of radians [rad] to degrees [°] can be achieved using the following calculation method.

  • Degrees [°] = radians [rad] * 180 ÷ π
