Radian
SI unit of angular measure / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A radian is a unit of measuring angles. It is shown by the symbol "rad"[1] or, less often, c (for circular measure). The radian was once an SI supplementary unit, but was changed to a derived unit in 1995. A radian's arc length is equal to the radii from the circle it is part of.
