Python Program - Convert Radians to Degrees
Python Program - Convert Radians to Degrees
To convert an angle from Radians to Degrees in Python, you can use the following formula in the program.
Degrees = Radians * (180 / π)
Let us write a function, that takes the Radians value as argument, computes the Degrees using the above formula, and returns the result.
def radiansToDegrees(degrees):
return radians * (180 / math.pi)
You may use this function, in your program, to convert Radians to Degrees.
Since we have used math.pi
in the program, please remember to import math
module in the import section.
The following is an example program, where we shall use the above conversion function, and convert 2.5
Radians to Degrees and print the result to output.
Python Program
import math
# Function that converts Radians to Degrees
def radiansToDegrees(degrees):
return radians * (180 / math.pi)
if __name__ == "__main__":
# Given Radians
radians = 2.5
# Convert Radians to Degrees
degrees = radiansToDegrees(radians)
print(f"{radians} radians is equal to {degrees} degrees")
Output
2.5 radians is equal to 143.2394487827058 degrees
To implement the formula, we used Python Multiplication, and Python Division, from Arithmetic Operators.
