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.
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.
