ANGLES Angle Conversion (Page 5 of 5)

You can also convert an angle from DMS to radians. Try this for the angle 25° 7' 30". Enter the angle using the appropriate symbols within parentheses, followed by the degree symbol. The calculator will convert from DMS to decimal degrees, then give the result in radians. Without the parentheses the result would represent the angle in decimal degrees (the conversion to radians would then require a secondary step).
