Well, whether it is satisfactory is a matter of taste, but as an update
to the messages cited, there is this:
load (ezunits);
sin (1 ` degree);
=> sin(%pi/180)
sin (10 ` degree);
=> sin(%pi/18)
sin (30 ` degree);
=> 1/2
atan2 (3, 4) `` degree;
=> 180*atan(3/4)/%pi ` degree
float (%);
=> 36.86989764584403 ` degree
All the best,
