About Radian (rad)

The SI unit of angular measure, one radian is the angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc equal in length to the radius. A full circle is 2*pi radians (approximately 6.283 rad). Radians are essential in calculus and physics because trigonometric functions have their simplest derivatives when angles are in radians.

About Degree (°)

One 360th of a full rotation, the degree has been used since ancient Babylonian astronomy, likely chosen because 360 approximates the number of days in a year and has many convenient divisors. Navigation, surveying, architecture, and everyday angle descriptions all use degrees as their primary unit.
