How do you convert radians to meters?? Is it even possible?
 
That would be converting an angular displacement to a linear displacement. You'd need more data to find a length given an angle in radians.

Hi orange03! :smile:

arc-length = rθ (with θ in radians),

so if r is in metres, then the arc-length will be in metres also.
