  • To convert degrees to radians, use this formula: \(\color{blue}{Radians = Degrees \ × \frac{π}{180}}\)
  • To convert radians to degrees, use this formula: \(\color{blue}{Degrees =Radians ×\frac{180}{π}}\)

Angles and Angle Measure – Example 1:

Convert \(120\) degrees to radians.

Solution:

Use this formula: \(Radians\) \(=\) \(Degrees\) \(×\frac{π}{180}\)
Radians \(=120×\frac{π}{180}=\frac{120π}{180}=\frac{2π}{3}\)
