What is a Radian Angle? Convert Degrees to Radians & Radians to Degrees

More Lessons: www.MathAndScience.com
Twitter: / jasongibsonmath
In this lesson, you will learn what radian angle measure is and how it compares to degree measure. Every circle has 360 degrees, and every circle has 2 Pi radians. The reason is because if we consider a unit circle to have a radius of one, then the circumference of a unit circle is 2 Pi distance units. We can then use the distance around the unit circle to be a new measure of angle, where if we go all the way around the unit circle we travel 2 Pi radian angle units around the circle. This is a much more natural distance unit because it is fundamental to all circles and is not arbitrarily invented or defined. It is a fundamental feature of trigonometry, geometry, and calculus.

    I learned that the reason there are 360 degrees in a circle is because ancient civilizations used 360 days in a year for crop harvesting. The earth’s path being a orbital circle around the sun. The earth itself is divided into 360 degrees in longitude and latitude, then 60 minutes to a degree, and 60 seconds to a minute. Which brings us to the clock. 24 hours to a day which is split in two for two twelve hour parts to a day…which is 60 minutes to an hour, 60 seconds to a minute…which 360 is divisible by all.

    Jason if you pass on your pedagogy to other math teachers, many students would go to study STEM not because they need to but because they want to. I think mathematical intuition brings creativity and understanding while task based and exam based teaching reduces the field into something that may bore an average student.

    To better understand the conversion table is for me to see a relationship and that relationship is a ratio of 30° (π r)/180°. The degrees cancel out. 30(π r)/180 = π/6 radians. I think it helps when it makes sense of what the conversion table is doing.

    I am somewhat new to Trigonometry. However, it seems obvious to me that. Another way to look at and remember the Radians in the first quadrant. Is π/6 is 1/6 of π, a half circle or 180°. π/4 is 1/4 of π, a half circle or 180°. π/3 is 1/3 of π, a half circle or 180°. π/2 is 1/2 of π, a half circle or 180°. It's exactly what it is. It may not be as obvious as you go around the Unit Circle. 3π/2 is Three half circles divided by two. Or one and a half circles, divided by two. 3/2 or 1 1/2 divided by 2. Which is of course is 3/4 of the circle and 270°. 5π/4 is 1and 1/4π or half circles 225°. 2π/3 360°÷3 120° Or 2×180°÷3=120°. 3π/3 does reduce as you said. To 1π or π which is 180°. Although 3×180°= 440° and 440°÷ 440°=1, in this case π. As you said one half circle, or 180°. 4π/3 reduces to 1 1/3 π 240°. 5π/3 reduces to 1 2/3π 300°. 180°+ 2/3 180° which is 120 totals 300°. 300° is also Five sixths of the circle. 6/6 of a circle is obviously a whole circle 360°. Even though 6π totals 1080°. 1080°÷1080°=1in this case a full circle. Which makes sense why some prefer to use degrees. 6/6 of a circle intuitively should total 360°. I think the 1080° along with the increments leading up to it will make more sense. As I learn more about Trigonometry and it's related subjects. Although I may have lost some people describing this. I hope this helps. It wasn't my intention wasn't to negatively critique you or the contents of this video. I enjoyed it. As well as all of your other videos I have seen. I think you did a great job of explaining everything. I have only seen a small number of your videos. However, I have found them to be very informative. Thank you for this video. As well as all of your other ones.

    Very clear explanation of an otherwise complicated topic. At the risk of muddying the waters I noticed that you didn't bother to explain that an angle, θ, is defined as the ratio of the arc length, s, of a segment around the perimeter of a circle (an arbitrary circle) to said circle's radius, r such that θ := s/r (and that because an angle is a ratio of one distance to another distance, angles themselves are dimensionless.) Hence an angle of 1 radian corresponds to an arc length equal to 1 radius. 1 = s/r --> r = s. It's okay in my opinion that you skipped this bit at an introductory level because it wasn't explained to me this way until freshman physics in college. However, once I saw the concept of angle in this light all the trigonometry I had stuffed into my head in high school made instant sense.
