The java.lang.StrictMath.toDegrees() method of StrictMath class in Java is used to accept an angle measured in radians as a parameter and returns its approximately equivalent angle measured in degrees. So basically it converts radians to degrees. This conversion is generally inexact.
Syntax:
public static double toDegrees(double rad)
Parameters: This function accepts a single parameter rad which refers to an angle in radians which is to be converted to its equivalent degrees.
Return Values:This method returns the measurement of the angle passed as a parameter in degrees.
Examples:
Input : 2.0 Output : 114.59155902616465 Input : 0.007022 Output : 0.4023309637408641
Below programs illustrate the java.lang.StrictMath.toDegrees() method in Java :
Program 1:
// Java Program to illustrate StrictMath.toDegrees()// function import java.io.*;import java.lang.*; class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { double rad = 3.0009871008; double deg = StrictMath.toDegrees(rad); System.out.println("Value in degrees of " + rad + " radians is " + deg); }} |
Output:
Value in degrees of 3.0009871008 radians is 171.943895249041
Program 2:
// Java Program to illustrate StrictMath.toDegrees()// function import java.io.*;import java.lang.*; class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { double rad = 1.0; double deg = StrictMath.toDegrees(rad); System.out.println("Value in degrees of " + rad + " radians is " + deg); }} |
Output:
Value in degrees of 1.0 radians is 57.29577951308232
