Unit Story
Milliradian
A milliradian is one thousandth of a radian. Surveying, optics, ballistics, and antenna alignment use it for small directional changes.
Radian
A radian links an angle directly to a circle: the arc length equals the radius. That natural relationship makes radians central to mathematics and engineering.
