# Degree Operator

Most nodes work in **radians** instead of degrees where angles are involved. An **angle** of 360° corresponds to 2\*Pi radians. If you want to work in degrees instead of radians, use the Degree node to convert radians to degrees and vice-versa. On the **Attribute Manager**’s Node Properties page, choose the direction of the conversion from the Function drop-down list.
