To Change Radians To Degrees

[1] Divide By 2π = 2(3.14 ... )

[2] Multiply By 360

To Change Degrees To Radians

[1] Divide By 360

[2] Multiply By 2π = 2(3.14 ... )

360 Degrees = 2π Radians

180 Degrees = π Radians

90 Degrees = π/2 Radians

45 Degrees = π/4 Radians

30 Degrees = π/6 Radians

60 Degrees = π/3 Radians

120 Degrees = 2π/3 Radians

150 Degrees = 5π/6 Radians

Arc Length = rθ

Where r is the radius
and θ is the angle at the centre of the circle

Sector Area = r2θ

Where r is the radius
and θ is the angle at the centre of the circle
