You must multiply that by pi/180, to convert to radians.

1 rad = 180°/pi Example: 1.6 rad = 1.6(180°/pi) 1.6 rad = 2880°/pi
1 revolution = 2pi radians therefore; 1 radian = 1revolution/2 pi radians = 0.159154943 revolution

Degree measure is based off of a division of 360 degrees in a circle. Radian measure is based off of a division of 2PI in a full circle.

One radian is equal to roughly 57 degrees!
1 rad = 180°/pi Example: 1.6 rad = 1.6(180°/pi) 1.6 rad = 2880°/pi
In radian measure, 2pi radians is a full circle. In degrees, 360° is a full circle, so 2pi radians = 360°. If you want to convert: Radians = (2*pi/360)*Degrees = (pi/180)*degrees. And Degrees = (180/pi)*Radians.
Just as you can measure a distance in metres and centimetres or in feet and inches, you can measure angles in degrees or radians. You can either set your calculator to radians, or convert from radians to degrees using 1 radian = 180/pi degrees = 57.3 degrees approx or 1 degree = pi/180 radians.
1 revolution = 2pi radians therefore; 1 radian = 1revolution/2 pi radians = 0.159154943 revolution
