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.
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.
