Program to Convert Radian to Degree

Before moving to the actual solution, let’s try to find out what is a degree, a radian, and their relations.

Radian : The radian is the standard unit of angular measure, used in many areas of mathematics. The length of an arc of a unit circle is numerically equal to the measurement in radians of the angle that it subtends. One radian is just under 57.3 degrees.

Degree : A degree (in full, a degree of arc, arc degree, or arcdegree), usually denoted by ° (the degree symbol), is a measurement of a plane angle, defined so that a full rotation is 360 degrees.



The relation 2pi*rad = 360° can be derived using the formula for arc length.
An arc of a circle with the same length as the radius of that circle subtends an angle of 1 radian. The circumference subtends an angle of 2pi radians.
Therefore the formula is:

degree = radian * (180/pi)
where, pi = 22/7

Examples:

Input : radian = 20
Output : degree = 1145.4545454545455
Explanation: degree = 20 * (180/pi)

Input : radian = 5
Output : degree = 286.3636363636364
Explanation : degree = 20 * (180/pi)

Note: In this programs, we have taken the value of pi as 3.14159 to get standard result in all three languages.
