The dimensions for the seven base SI units are length, mass, time, electric current, thermodynamic temperature, mass, and luminous intensity. (m, kg, s, A, K, mol, cd). (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_base_unit and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_derived_unit)
Is it possible to add the SI derived unit radian (symbol:rad, dimension:angle) and the non SI unit degree (symbol: U+00B0, 1 degree= 2pi/360 rad) ? Regards, Jan Willem Knopper
