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 Hexa-Contades.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in compass points is:

Angle(Compass Points) = 8

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from compass points to hexa-contades is:

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = Angle(Compass Points) × 1.875

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Compass Points) = 8 in the above formula.

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 8 × 1.875

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 15

Final Answer:

Therefore, 8 compass point is equal to 15 hexacontade.

The angle is 15 hexacontade, in hexa-contades.

2

Consider that a hiker adjusts their direction by 4 compass points to stay on track.
Convert this direction from compass points to Hexa-Contades.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in compass points is:

Angle(Compass Points) = 4

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from compass points to hexa-contades is:

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = Angle(Compass Points) × 1.875

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Compass Points) = 4 in the above formula.

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 4 × 1.875

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 7.5

Final Answer:

Therefore, 4 compass point is equal to 7.5 hexacontade.

The angle is 7.5 hexacontade, in hexa-contades.

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.

Hexa-Contades

Hexa-contades are an ancient unit of angular measurement, originating from Babylonian astronomy, where the circle was divided into 60 parts, with each part further divided into 6 degrees. This system reflects the base-60 numeral system used by the Babylonians and was foundational in early astronomical calculations.
