About Diversify India’s Radians to Arcseconds Converter

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

What are Radians and Arcseconds?

  1. 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.
  2. 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.

How to Convert Radians to Arcseconds

  1. Understand the relationship between units:
    • 1 circle = 360 degrees
    • 1 circle = 2π radians
    • 1 degree = 60 arcminutes
    • 1 arcminute = 60 arcseconds
  2. Combine these relationships:
    • 1 radian = 360 ÷ 2π degrees
    • 1 radian ≈ 57.2958 degrees
    • 1 degree = 60 arcminutes × 60 arcseconds per arcminute
    • 1 degree = 3600 arcseconds
    • 1 radian = 57.2958 degrees × 3600 arcseconds per degree
    • 1 radian ≈ 206265 arcseconds
  3. Convert radians to arcseconds:
    • To convert radians to arcseconds, multiply the number of radians by 206265.
    • arcseconds = radians × 206265

Example

  • Convert 0.5 radians to arcseconds:
    • arcseconds = 0.5 radians × 206265
    • arcseconds ≈ 103132.5

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