How to convert degrees to radians

One full turn is 360° = 2π rad = 400 gon. A minute or second of arc is an angular unit, distinct from time; decimal displays of factors involving π are approximate.

Formula
rad = ° × 0.01745329252

One degree is 0.01745329252 radians, so a single multiplication converts any value.

Example
0.174533 rad ≈ 10 × 0.01745329252

Sources and precision

Table results are rounded to 8 significant digits; formula constants may be rounded to 10. Worked example answers use 6 significant digits. The converter starts at 6 significant digits and lets you change display precision. Calculations use the stored factors without intermediate rounding. Exact unit definitions do not make an input measurement more precise; conventional and measured factors follow the assumptions stated here.
