Hexa-Contades unit in Angle

Hexacontades are a unit of angular measurement where a full circle is divided into 60 equal parts. Each hexacontade represents 6 degrees. This unit is used in ancient and historical contexts, particularly in astronomy and geometry, where divisions of 60 were commonly employed due to their mathematical convenience and divisibility.

Hour Angles unit in Angle

Hour angles are a unit of angular measurement used in astronomy to describe the position of celestial objects in the sky. One hour angle is equivalent to 15 degrees, corresponding to the Earth's rotation of 15 degrees per hour. Hour angles are essential in celestial navigation and the calculation of local sidereal time.
