SI supplementary unit

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Until 1995, SI (International System of Units) supplementary units were:

Quantity Symbol Name of SI supplementary unit Symbol for SI unit
angle θ radian rad
solid angle Ω steradian sr

As of October 1995, the category of "supplementary units" has been abolished from the SI system of measurement, and the radian and the steradian are now considered SI derived units.
