How to Convert Degrees to Radians
Formula
To convert degrees to radians, multiply the degree value by π/180. Radians are the standard unit of angular measure in mathematics and physics.
This calculator also shows the result as a multiple of π so you can identify common exact values like π/6, π/4, π/3, and π/2.
Common use cases:
- Trigonometry calculations requiring radian input
- Programming math functions that expect radians
- Physics angular velocity problems
