Examples

1

Consider that the position of a celestial body is tracked at 6 hour angles.
Convert this angle from hour angles to Hexa-Contades.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in hour angles is:

Angle(Hour Angles) = 6

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from hour angles to hexa-contades is:

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = Angle(Hour Angles) × 2.5

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Hour Angles) = 6 in the above formula.

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 6 × 2.5

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 15

Final Answer:

Therefore, 6 hour angle is equal to 15 hexacontade.

The angle is 15 hexacontade, in hexa-contades.

2

Consider that a sundial shows a time difference of 4 hour angles.
Convert this angle from hour angles to Hexa-Contades.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in hour angles is:

Angle(Hour Angles) = 4

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from hour angles to hexa-contades is:

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = Angle(Hour Angles) × 2.5

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Hour Angles) = 4 in the above formula.

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 4 × 2.5

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 10

Final Answer:

Therefore, 4 hour angle is equal to 10 hexacontade.

The angle is 10 hexacontade, in hexa-contades.

Hour Angles

Hour angles are a unit of angular measurement used in astronomy to describe the position of celestial objects relative to an observer's local meridian. One hour angle corresponds to 15 degrees, reflecting the Earth's rotation rate of 15 degrees per hour. Hour angles are crucial in celestial navigation and the tracking of astronomical objects.

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.
