Radians

Radians are a fundamental unit of angular measurement in the International System of Units (SI). One radian is the angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc whose length is equal to the radius of the circle. Radians are essential in mathematics and physics, particularly in calculus and trigonometry, where they simplify equations and allow for the natural expression of rotational and periodic phenomena.

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.
