eli5: Can’t we just create a different scale with pi as an integer?

171 views

We have number like pi and √2 that are problematic in some cases.
Does it exists a branch of math that uses them as units and recalculate every number in that scale to simplify some calculus?

Like
-π, 0,π,2π,3π and so on.

Trigonometry comes to mind. Basically anything that has to do with circles/sections of circles uses radians; 2π radians = 360 degrees
