Examples
1
Consider that a ship's navigation system shifts by 8 compass points to adjust its course. Convert this direction from compass points to Diameter Parts.
Answer:
Given:
The angle in compass points is:
Angle(Compass Points) = 8
Formula:
The formula to convert angle from compass points to diameter parts is:
Substitute given weight Angle(Compass Points) = 4 in the above formula.
Angle(Diameter Parts) = 4 × 11.25 × 376.991 / 360
Angle(Diameter Parts) = 47.1239
Final Answer:
Therefore, 4 compass point is equal to 47.1239 diameter part.
The angle is 47.1239 diameter part, in diameter parts.

Compass Points
Compass points are a unit of angular measurement used in navigation and cartography to represent directions on a compass. Traditionally, the compass is divided into 32 points, each representing 11.25 degrees. Compass points are essential in maritime navigation, aviation, and orienteering, providing a simple and standardized way to describe directions.
Diameter Parts
Diameter parts are a less common unit of angular measurement, historically used to describe angles in terms of the fractional parts of a circle's diameter. This unit was more prevalent in classical geometry and certain types of mechanical design, where direct relationships between linear measurements and angles were essential.
