PHP rad2deg() Function
The PHP rad2deg() function is used to convert an angle in radians to an angle in degrees.
Syntax
rad2deg(number)
Parameters
number |
Required. Specify an angle in radians to convert. |
Return Value
The degree equivalent of an angle in radians.
Example:
In the example below, rad2deg() function is used to convert an angle in radians to an angle in degrees.
<?php echo "rad2deg(PI()/6) returns: ".rad2deg(PI()/6)."\n"; echo "rad2deg(PI()/3) returns: ".rad2deg(PI()/3)."\n"; echo "rad2deg(PI()/2) returns: ".rad2deg(PI()/2)."\n"; echo "rad2deg(M_PI) returns: ".rad2deg(M_PI)."\n"; echo "rad2deg(M_PI_2) returns: ".rad2deg(M_PI_2)."\n"; echo "rad2deg(M_PI_4) returns: ".rad2deg(M_PI_4)."\n"; ?>
The output of the above code will be:
rad2deg(PI()/6) returns: 30 rad2deg(PI()/3) returns: 60 rad2deg(PI()/2) returns: 90 rad2deg(M_PI) returns: 180 rad2deg(M_PI_2) returns: 90 rad2deg(M_PI_4) returns: 45
