Sin 10 radians is -0,54
Sin 10 degrees is 0,1736

but it is not right to speak of 10 radians, because in Radians, the
angles range from 0 to 2*Pi (numerically speaking from 0 to 6,2831...)
so 10 radians actually are equivalent to approx. (1,183 * Pi)
and in Degrees, the angles range from 0 to 360°

10 Radians are equivalent to 10*(180/Pi) = 572,95 Degrees = 212,95
Degrees ....

in GH, all angles are in Radians.
