To convert degrees back to radians, you can use the RADIANS function.

Converting degrees to radians manually

Because Pi = 180°, the general formula for degrees to radians is degrees * PI()/180. For example, to convert 45° to radians, the Excel formula would be 45*PI( )/180 which equals 0.7854 radians. More examples in the table below:
