Convert radian to half circle

Learn how to convert 1 radian to half circle step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (r a d i a n) = x (h a l f c i r c l e)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(r a d i a n)

Left side: 1.0 (r a d i a n) = 1.0 (r a d i a n) = 1.0 (r a d)

Right side: 1.0 (h a l f c i r c l e) = π (r a d i a n) = π (r a d)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (r a d i a n) = x (h a l f c i r c l e)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 1.0 \times (r a d i a n) = x \times π \times (r a d i a n)

Or

1.0 \cdot 1.0 \cdot (r a d) = x \cdot π \cdot (r a d)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 1.0 \cdot (r a d) = x \times π \times (r a d)

Conversion Equation

1.0 = x \times π

Simplify

1.0 = x \times π

Switch sides

x \times π = 1.0

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{π})

x \times π \times \frac{1.0}{π} = 1.0 \times \frac{1.0}{π}

Cancel

x \times π \times \frac{1.0}{π} = 1.0 \times \frac{1.0}{π}

Simplify

x = \frac{1.0}{π}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.3183098862 \approx 3.1831 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (r a d i a n) \approx 3.1831 \times 10^{- 1} (h a l f c i r c l e)
