How-to Guide
1. Enter the RADIANS function in a cell
Entry path: Formulas tab → formula bar
- Open WPS Spreadsheet and go to the worksheet where you want to calculate a result.
- Select the cell that should display the result.

- Common mistake: An unclosed parenthesis or an invalid argument format can cause an incorrect result.
3. Convert an angle by referencing another cell
Entry path: Target result cell → formula bar
- Enter an angle value in a worksheet cell.
- Select the result cell and type
=RADIANS(. - Click the cell that contains the angle value to insert the cell reference.
- Type the closing parenthesis
). - Press Enter to complete the calculation.

4. Check the result and confirm automatic recalculation
Entry path: Result cell with a completed formula
- Complete a
RADIANSformula first. - Return to the referenced angle cell and change the value.
- Press Enter to confirm the edit.
- Check whether the result cell updates at the same time.
Success Criteria
