The RADIANS function in Excel is a mathematical function that converts degrees to radians. It is useful for performing calculations involving angles in trigonometry and geometry. To use the RADIANS function, simply enter the angle in degrees as the argument. The function will then return the equivalent angle in radians. This can be done by typing “=RADIANS(angle)” into a cell, where “angle” is the degree value. The result will be displayed in the cell. The RADIANS function can also be used in formulas and calculations to convert angles within a larger equation. It is a helpful tool for accurately converting between degrees and radians in Excel.
This article describes the formula syntax and usage of the RADIANS function in Microsoft Excel.
