Circles
Circles, in the context of angular measurement, refer to a full rotation or turn, equivalent to 360 degrees or one complete revolution. This unit is often used in discussions of periodic motion, waveforms, and cyclic processes, where the concept of a full rotation is integral to understanding patterns and cycles.
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.
