What is the Formula to convert Sextants to Diameter Parts?

The formula to convert given angle from Sextants to Diameter Parts is:

Angle(Diameter Parts) = Angle(Sextants) × 376.991 / 6

Substitute the given value of angle in sextants, i.e., Angle(Sextants) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the angle in diameter parts, i.e., Angle(Diameter Parts).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider that an old navigation tool, the sextant, measures angles in 6 sextants.
Convert this measurement from sextants to Diameter Parts.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in sextants is:

Angle(Sextants) = 6

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from sextants to diameter parts is:

Angle(Diameter Parts) = Angle(Sextants) × 376.991 / 6

Substitution:

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

Angle(Diameter Parts) = 6 × 376.991 / 6

Angle(Diameter Parts) = 376.991

Final Answer:

Therefore, 6 sextant is equal to 376.991 diameter part.

The angle is 376.991 diameter part, in diameter parts.

2

Consider that an astronomer divides the night sky into 2 sextants for observation.
Convert this division from sextants to Diameter Parts.

Answer:

Given:

The angle in sextants is:

Angle(Sextants) = 2

Formula:

The formula to convert angle from sextants to diameter parts is:

Angle(Diameter Parts) = Angle(Sextants) × 376.991 / 6

Substitution:

Substitute given weight Angle(Sextants) = 2 in the above formula.

Angle(Diameter Parts) = 2 × 376.991 / 6

Angle(Diameter Parts) = 125.6637

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2 sextant is equal to 125.6637 diameter part.

The angle is 125.6637 diameter part, in diameter parts.

Sextants

Sextants are a unit of angular measurement used primarily in navigation and astronomy, representing one-sixth of a full circle, or 60 degrees. The sextant instrument, named after this unit, is used to measure the angle between two visible objects, such as a star and the horizon, enabling precise determination of latitude and longitude at sea.

Diameter Parts

Diameter parts are a less common unit of angular measurement, historically used to describe angles in terms of the fractional parts of a circle's diameter. This unit was more prevalent in classical geometry and certain types of mechanical design, where direct relationships between linear measurements and angles were essential.
