Definition of Radian
A radian is the angle at the centre of the circle subtended (made) by an arc with the same length as the radius.
There are \(2\pi\) radians in a full rotation (once around the circle).
One radian is equal to \(\dfrac{180}{\pi}\) degrees, which is approximately equal to \(57.3^\circ\).
