Examples

1

Consider that an astronomical observation is recorded at 20 hexacontades.
Convert this angle from hexacontades to Compass Points.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in hexa-contades is:

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 20

Formula:

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

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

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 20 in the above formula.

Angle(Compass Points) = 20 / 1.875

Angle(Compass Points) = 10.6667

Final Answer:

Therefore, 20 hexacontade is equal to 10.6667 compass point.

The angle is 10.6667 compass point, in compass points.

2

Consider that a solar panel's angle is adjusted by 10 hexacontades for maximum efficiency.
Convert this angle from hexacontades to Compass Points.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in hexa-contades is:

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 10

Formula:

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

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

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 10 in the above formula.

Angle(Compass Points) = 10 / 1.875

Angle(Compass Points) = 5.3333

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 hexacontade is equal to 5.3333 compass point.

The angle is 5.3333 compass point, in compass points.

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.

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.
