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.
Zam
Zam is a non-standard and hypothetical unit of angular measurement. The term is rarely used and does not correspond to any recognized system of measurement. It is sometimes employed in theoretical discussions or as a fictional or whimsical reference to angular measurement in certain contexts.
