理解角度

角是由两条射线（称为角的边）形成的图形，这两条射线共享一个公共端点，称为顶点。角度在几何学、物理学和工程学中是基础性的。

介绍

Angles are fundamental geometric concepts that measure the amount of rotation between two lines or rays. They are essential in mathematics, physics, engineering, and many practical applications.

历史

The study of angles dates back to ancient civilizations. The Babylonians developed the 360-degree system, while the concept of radians emerged from calculus and provides a more natural unit for mathematical analysis.

关键单位

Degree (°)

The most common angular unit, where a full circle equals 360 degrees.

Radian (rad)

The SI unit for angles, where a full circle equals 2π radians.

Gradian (gon)

A metric angular unit where a full circle equals 400 gradians.

应用

  • Navigation and surveying
  • Architecture and construction
  • Astronomy and celestial mechanics
  • Computer graphics and animation
  • Robotics and mechanical engineering

Angle Conversion

1 radian = 180°/π ≈ 57.296°

The relationship between degrees and radians is fundamental in mathematics and physics.
