How to do I convert angles from radians to degrees in Excel?
 

I am trying to obtain the measure of an angle in degree format in EXCEL. I
found how to convert the angle using another funnction but that doesn't give
me the right answer for some reason. It gives me the right answer in radian
format but when I try to convert it to degrees it gives me a off the wall
answer. I know it is wrong because it doesn't not work out the same way on
my calculator when it is in degree format.

Thanks for you help.

Just use the DEGREES function. E.g.,

=DEGREES(PI()/2)

Assuming A1 is in radians,

=DEGREES(A1)

Will return the corresponding degree
