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.

Gradians unit in Angle

Gradians, also known as gons or grades, divide a circle into 400 equal parts, with each part representing one gradian. This unit is mainly used in surveying and civil engineering, where it provides a straightforward way to work with angles that are multiples of 10 or 100. Gradians offer an alternative to degrees and radians, especially in applications that require precise angular measurements.
