How to Use Angle Conversion Calculator

The Angle Conversion Calculator instantly converts any angle between four common units used in math, engineering, and surveying.

  1. Enter the value — Any positive or negative decimal number.
  2. Pick the source unit — Degrees, radians, gradians, or turns.
  3. Read all four results — The converted value plus the equivalent in every other unit.
  4. Use the table — Reference the side-by-side unit values for reports or homework.

Formula & Theory - Angle Conversion Calculator

The four units relate through these exact identities:

1 turn = 360° = 2π rad = 400 gon
1° = π / 180 rad = 10/9 gon = 1/360 turn
1 rad = 180/π degrees ≈ 57.2958°
1 gon = 0.9° = π/200 rad

Conversion Formulas

deg = rad × 180/π = gon × 0.9 = turns × 360
rad = deg × π/180 = gon × π/200 = turns × 2π

Use Cases for Angle Conversion Calculator

The Angle Conversion Calculator is helpful for:

  • Math and physics — Switch between degrees and radians for trig functions and rotational mechanics.
  • Engineering drawings — Convert design angles between degrees and gradians for CAD or surveying.
  • Robotics & motors — Translate encoder counts (turns) into degrees or radians.
  • Astronomy — Convert celestial angle measurements between systems.
  • Surveying — Gradians remain common in French and Scandinavian land surveying.
  • Game and graphics — Convert player rotation values stored in turns or radians to degrees.

The Angle Conversion Calculator provides a single source of truth for every angle representation you might need.

Frequently asked questions about Angle Conversion Calculator

What angle units does the calculator support?

Degrees (°), radians (rad), gradians (gon) and turns (full circle). The Angle Conversion Calculator outputs all four units in a single view.

What is 1 radian in degrees?

1 radian ≈ 57.2958°. The exact relationship is 180° = π rad, so 1 rad = 180/π degrees.

When are gradians used?

Gradians (also called gons) divide a right angle into 100 parts. They are still used in surveying and some European engineering disciplines.

What is a 'turn'?

A turn (or revolution) is one full circle. 1 turn = 360° = 2π rad = 400 gon.
