Normally, angles are interpreted according to the Angle mode
setting. However, you can specify an angle as degrees or
radians regardless of the Angle mode.
Suppose a series of trig calculations uses radians, but a few
use degrees. Rather than change from
Radian
to
Degree
Angle
mode and then back again, you can stay in the
Radian
Angle
mode and specify some angles as degrees.
In
Radian
Angle mode, calculate sin(p/3). Then, without
changing to the
Degree
Angle mode, calculate sin(60¡).

Likewise, you can use

60 is specified as degrees
