Turns
A turn, also known as a revolution or full circle, represents a complete rotation around a central point and is equal to 360 degrees or 2Ï€ radians. Turns are used in various disciplines, including engineering, navigation, and geometry, to describe full rotations. The concept of turns is deeply rooted in both mathematical theory and practical applications, such as in the design of gears and wheels.
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.
