Quadrants unit in Angle

Quadrants are a unit of angular measurement that divides a full circle into four equal parts, with each quadrant representing 90 degrees. Quadrants are often used in navigation, surveying, and geometry to describe the orientation of objects or regions relative to a central point.

Compass Points unit in Angle

Compass points are a unit of angular measurement based on the traditional 32-point compass rose, where the full circle is divided into 32 equal parts. Each compass point represents 11.25 degrees. Compass points are primarily used in navigation and meteorology to describe directions and wind headings with precision.
