💡 Practical Example
For example, converting 180° into radians and subdivisions: \}}\), \(\mathbf{200.00\text{ Gradians}}\), \(\mathbf{10,800.00\text{ MOA (Arcminutes)}}\), and \(\mathbf{3,141.59\text{ mrad}}\). The trigonometric values are \(\sin(180^{\circ}) = 0.0000\), \(\cos(180^{\circ}) = -1.0000\), and \(\tan(180^{\circ}) = 0.0000\).
📖 About Angle and Rotation Converter
Circular Geometry & Trigonometric Angle Units
Angles measure rotational displacement between intersecting rays.
The Major Angle Standards
- Degrees (°): Babylonian division of a circle into 360 equal sectors (subdivided into 60 arcminutes and 3,600 arcseconds).
- Radians (rad): SI coherent unit defined as arc length divided by radius). One full rotation is 2π radians.
- Gradians: Metric decimal angle system dividing a full turn into 400 gradians.
- Minute of Angle (MOA): Standard in firearms ballistics and optics (1 MOA ≈ 1.047 inches at 100 yards).
- Milliradians: Standard in tactical reticles and artillery.
How to Use This Calculator
Enter your Angle / Angular Displacement Value (e.g. 180), From Unit — choose from Degrees (°), Radians (rad, SI), Gradians / Gons (grad, 400/rev), and To Primary Target Unit — choose from Radians (rad), Degrees (°), Gradians (grad). Results update instantly as you type — adjust any value to compare scenarios.
The Formula
Universal angular conversion ratios based on circular geometry: to Degrees: ^ = rad × (180) / (π) ≈ rad × 57.29578 to Radians: rad = ^ × (π) / (180) ≈ ^ × 0.01745329 (Gons): 1 grad = 0.9^ = (π) / (200) rad of Angle (MOA): 1 MOA = 1^60 = 60 arcseconds (mrad): 1 mrad = 10^-3 rad = 3.43775 MOA = 0.057296^
Worked Example
For example, converting 180° into radians and subdivisions: \, 200.00 Gradians, 10,800.00 MOA (Arcminutes), and 3,141.59 mrad. The trigonometric values are (180^) = 0.0000, (180^) = -1.0000, and (180^) = 0.
0000.
Understanding Your Result
Unit conversion precision: round to the same number of significant figures as your original measurement. Converting 6 feet to meters gives 1.8288 m — but if your measurement was approximate (±1 inch), expressing more than 2 decimal places is false precision. For international trade and technical specifications, SI units (meters, kilograms, liters) are the standard. US customary units (feet, pounds, gallons) differ from Imperial UK units: 1 US gallon = 3.785 L vs. 1 UK gallon = 4.546 L.
