Accuracy and rounding
Radians are common in math and code; degrees are common in maps, tools, and everyday angle measurements.
Degrees, radians, gradians, and turns are fixed ways to express the same rotation.
For display, one or two decimals is usually enough. For code, CAD, or trigonometry, keep more precision.
How to convert degrees to radians
- Enter the value in degrees.
- Select degrees as the source unit.
- Select radians as the target unit.
- Read or copy the result.

Common questions
How do I convert degrees to radians?
Enter the degrees value in the converter, or multiply by the factor shown in the formula. 1 deg = 0.01745 rad.
What should I watch out for?
Radians, degrees, gradians, and turns all measure the same rotation with different reference scales.
Where does this angle conversion come from?
Angle relationships derived from a full turn equaling 2 pi radians. ConverterBase uses stable definitions and fixed conversion factors, not live or rounded market data.
