About Diversify India’s Arcseconds to Radians Converter

Input the value of arcseconds, and our free arcseconds to radians converter tool will convert your value to radians and vice versa.

What are Arcseconds and Radians?

  1. Arcseconds:
    • Arcseconds are a unit of angular measurement.
    • One arcsecond represents 1/3600 of a degree.
    • They are also referred to as seconds of arc.
  2. Radians:
    • Radians are a unit of angular measurement.
    • One radian is the angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc whose length is equal to the circle’s radius.
    • There are 2π radians in a full circle.

How to Convert Arcseconds to Radians

  1. Understand the relationship between units:
    • 1 circle = 360 degrees
    • 1 degree = 60 arcminutes
    • 1 arcminute = 60 arcseconds
    • 1 circle = 2π radians
  2. Combine these relationships:
    • 1 degree = 60 arcminutes × 60 arcseconds per arcminute
    • 1 degree = 3600 arcseconds
    • 1 radian = 360 ÷ 2π degrees
    • 1 radian = (360 degrees × 3600 arcseconds per degree) ÷ 2π
    • 1 radian ≈ 206265 arcseconds
  3. Convert arcseconds to radians:
    • To convert arcseconds to radians, divide the number of arcseconds by 206265.
    • radians = arcseconds ÷ 206265

Example

  • Convert 50000 arcseconds to radians:
    • radians = 50000 arcseconds ÷ 206265
    • radians ≈ 0.24241

That’s it! You now know how to convert arcseconds to radians.
