A "convention" is "just the way a thing is done!". This reference material lists some common conventions (notational assumptions) for geometry and trigonometry.
Mathigon
Mathigon: Geometry: Circle and Pi: Degrees and Radians
Rather than dividing a circle into some number of segments (like 360 degrees), mathematicians often prefer to measure angles using the circumference of a unit circle - a circle with radius 1. This way of measuring angles is called...
