Examples

1

Consider that a microscope's fine adjustment is set to 30 arc seconds for detailed observation.
Convert this angle from seconds to Hexa-Contades.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in seconds is:

Angle(Seconds) = 30

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from seconds to hexa-contades is:

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = Angle(Seconds) / 21600

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Seconds) = 30 in the above formula.

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 30 / 21600

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 0.00138888889

Final Answer:

Therefore, 30 " is equal to 0.00138888889 hexacontade.

The angle is 0.00138888889 hexacontade, in hexa-contades.

2

Consider that a telescope's alignment needs to be within 20 arc seconds for accurate tracking.
Convert this angle from seconds to Hexa-Contades.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in seconds is:

Angle(Seconds) = 20

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from seconds to hexa-contades is:

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = Angle(Seconds) / 21600

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Seconds) = 20 in the above formula.

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 20 / 21600

Angle(Hexa-Contades) = 0.00092592593

Final Answer:

Therefore, 20 " is equal to 0.00092592593 hexacontade.

The angle is 0.00092592593 hexacontade, in hexa-contades.

Seconds

Seconds of arc, often simply called arcseconds, are a further subdivision of minutes of arc, with 60 seconds in one minute. This small unit is used for extremely precise angular measurements, such as those needed in astronomy, optics, and surveying, where even minute differences in angle can be significant.

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.
