Python math.radians() - Convert Degrees to Radians

Python math.radians()

math.radians(x) function converts x degrees into radians and returns the radians.

The syntax to call radians() function is

math.radians(x)

where

Parameter	Required	Description
x	Yes	A numeric value that represents angle in degrees.

In the following example, we convert 60 degrees into radians, using radians() function of math module.

Python Program

import math

x = 60 #degrees
result = math.radians(x)
print('radians(x) :', result)

Output

radians(x) : 1.0471975511965976

Now, let us convert one degree into radians.

Python Program

import math

x = 1 #degrees
result = math.radians(x)
print('radians(x) :', result)

Output

radians(x) : 0.017453292519943295
