Calculate torque magnitude from lever arm, force, and included angle. The page evaluates the displayed equation from your supplied values and presents both symbolic and substituted KaTeX working so the arithmetic can be checked.
tau = rF sin(theta)

Use boundary
The force acts at one point on a rigid lever and the stated angle is between position and force vectors.
Use internally consistent units and retain extra precision when carrying the result into another calculation.
