degrees = radians * 180 / pi
radians = degrees * pi / 180
150 radians * 180 / pi = 8594.366927 degrees.
8594.366927 degrees * pi / 180 = 150 radians.
on the unit circle, one complete revolution is equal to 360 degrees or 2pi radians.
8594.366927 / 360 = 23.87324146 = 23 complete revolutions plus .87324146 * 360 = 23 complete revolutions plus 314.366927 degrees.
150 radians / 2*pi = 23.87324146 = 23 complete revolutions plus .87324146 * 2pi = 23 complete revolutions plus 5.4867379935 radians.
5.4867379935 radians * 180 / pi = 34.366927 degrees.
the numbers are equivalent as they should be.
degrees = radians * 180 / pi
radians = degrees * pi / 180
