Radian Measure To talk about trigonometric functions, it is helpful to move to a different system of angle measure, called radian measure. A radian is the measure of a central angle whose minor arc is equal in length to the radius of the circle. There are 2 or approximately 6.28318, radians in a complete circle. Thus, one radian is about 57.296 angular degrees.

Radian Measure There are 2π radians in a full rotation – once around the circle There are 360° in a full rotation To convert from degrees to radians or radians to degrees, use the proportion radians degrees 180 2π = 360°π = 180°

Examples Find the radian measure equivalent of 210°. Find the degree measure equivalent of radians. 3π 4 ° 4 3 180 4 3π3π 180° = π π 180 °° 210π 180 ° 7π 6

Q3. The bend on a running track is a semi-circle of radius A runner, on the track, runs a distance of 20 metres on the bend. The angles through which the runner has run is A. Find to three significant figures, the measure of A in radians. 20 mA 100 π metres. 20 = θ 100 π π 100 θ = 20 = 0·628 radians l = rθ
