Quadrants

Quadrants are a unit of angular measurement representing one-quarter of a full circle, equivalent to 90 degrees or π/2 radians. Quadrants are commonly used in geometry, astronomy, and navigation to describe and analyze positions, angles, and directional orientations within a defined space.

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.
