RADIANS
An angle in degrees, in radians.
Group: Math. Compatible with DAX.
Syntax
RADIANS ( <angle> )
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
angle | Number | An angle in degrees. |
Returns
Number. The same angle in radians.
Remarks
- It multiplies by pi / 180: a full turn of 360 degrees is 2 pi radians.
DEGREESgoes the other way. - OAX's trigonometric functions take radians, so a sine of 30 degrees is
SIN ( RADIANS ( 30 ) ). - A blank gives BLANK.
