sun position - Radians and degrees are two different units of measure for angles of a circle. It’s commonly known that a whole circle is 360 degrees and a half circle is 180 degrees. Radians also measure angles, but they relate to the radius of a circle, which is a straight line from the center to the circle to anywhere on the circumference. One radian is the measure of an angle whose arc length is equal to the radius. Because the circumference of a circle is equal to 2?r (? being pi, which can be rounded to 3.14), and we know that a circle has 360 degrees, then ?r equals 180. You can use this formula to determine any measurement of radians or degrees.
