Convert radians to degrees Mathcad Prime 2.0

I am havining trouble getting degrees out of my trig calculations. I am calculating sin(12.414) which in mathcad comes out to -0.152. On my calculator (set on deg mode) I get the answer of 0.2149. I am trying to get mathcad to spit out the 0.2149 number. Can any one help me with this? Thanks!

You're computing the sine of 12.414 radians (the default angle unit.) put the unit "deg" after the 12.414 (inside the parenthesis.)
