- Radians: ratio between the arc created by the angle and the radius

What is a Radian?

What is a Radian?

Radian: 1 Radian is the measure of the angle which creates an arc which is the same length as the radius.

Radians are typically reported in terms of π.

Radians are typically reported in terms of π.

- There are 2π radians in one full rotation around a circle
