Unveil the simplicity of converting radians to degrees with Newtum's Circle to Right Angle Converter. This tool sparks curiosity while ensuring precision in your mathematical conversions.
A circle is a simple geometric shape consisting of all points in a plane that are at a constant distance, known as the radius, from a given point, the center. It is a symbol of unity, wholeness, and infinity, and its study is essential to geometry, engineering, and physics.
Definition of RightAngleA right angle is a 90-degree angle, signifying a quarter turn, or a quarter of a full rotation. It is the cornerstone of Cartesian coordinate systems and is fundamental in geometry, construction, and various fields of design.
| Radians (rad) | Degrees (°) |
|---|---|
| 0.262 rad | 15° |
| 0.524 rad | 30° |
| 0.785 rad | 45° |
| 1.047 rad | 60° |
| 1.309 rad | 75° |
| 1.571 rad | 90° |
| 1.833 rad | 105° |
| 2.094 rad | 120° |
| 2.356 rad | 135° |
| 2.618 rad | 150° |
1 rad = 57.2958°
1° = 0.0175 rad
Example 1:
Convert 2 rad to degrees:
2 rad = 2 × 57.2958° = 114.5916°
Example 2:
Convert 0.5 rad to degrees:
0.5 rad = 0.5 × 57.2958° = 28.6479°
The Circle to Right Angle Converter traces its origins to the study of circular motion and geometry. It represents a practical application of converting radian measures, which naturally arise from the properties of circles, to degree measures, which are commonly used in various fields such as navigation, construction, and education.
Discover how Circle to Right Angle Converters play an integral role in applications that shape our daily lives and enhance technical precision.
Example 1: Convert 3 rad to degrees. Using the converter, 3 rad equals approximately 171.887 degrees.
Example 2: Convert π/2 rad to degrees. The converter shows that π/2 rad is exactly 90 degrees.
