Overview
About the Radians to Degrees Converter
Turn Radian into Degree with an exact factor. Type a value and get °, every other angle unit, and the working — all locally, with nothing uploaded.
Radian and Degree describe the same quantity on two different scales, and converting between them is a single arithmetic step once you know the exact factor. This page does that step in your browser: type a value in rad and the ° result appears immediately, alongside the same figure in every other angle unit.
The conversion
One rad is exactly 57.2958 °:
° = rad × 57.2958
rad = ° × 0.017453Multiply to go one way, divide (or multiply by the inverse) to come back. The factor is a defined constant, not a measurement, so it never needs rounding.
Worked example
10 rad = 572.9578 °. Enter 10 in the box above and you will see exactly that, plus the value carried across the rest of the angle scale so you can sanity-check it against a unit you already recognise.
About these units
Angle conversions turn on π. A full turn is 360 degrees and 2π radians, so one radian is exactly 180⁄π degrees — an irrational number, which is why radian results are shown to a fixed number of decimals rather than exactly.
Converting the other way
Press Swap to turn this into a °-to-rad converter in place. The inverse factor, 1 ° = 0.017453 rad, is shown in the arithmetic panel so you can check the reverse calculation independently.
Step by step
How to use the Radians to Degrees Converter
Enter the value in rad (radian) that you want to convert.
Read the answer in °, which updates the moment you type.
Scan the full angle table to see the same value in every other unit at once.
Copy the result, or press Swap to convert back the other way without re-entering anything.
Why use it
Benefits and common use cases
What this tool is good for, and what it deliberately does not try to do.
Exact, defined factors
Every angle conversion here uses the internationally defined relationship between rad and °, so the answer is as precise as the standard that fixes it rather than an approximation.
The whole category at once
Alongside the ° answer you get the same value expressed in every angle unit, so you can find the one you actually need without converting twice.
Private by construction
The arithmetic runs in your browser's own JavaScript. The numbers you enter are never sent to a server — close the tab and they are gone.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Short, honest answers about quality, limits and privacy.
How many degree are in one radian?
One rad equals 57.2958 °. Multiply any rad value by 57.2958 to get ° — for example, 10 rad = 572.9578 °.
What is the formula to convert rad to °?
° = rad × 57.2958. The page does this multiplication for you and also lists the inverse, 1 ° = 0.017453 rad.
Is this angle converter accurate?
Yes. It uses the exact defined factor for rad and ° and full double-precision arithmetic. The only rounding is in how many decimals are shown, which you control with the precision menu.
Are my numbers uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely in your browser, so nothing you type leaves your device. There is no account, no logging and no network request of any kind.
