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.

Sextants unit in Angle

Sextants are a unit of angular measurement that divides a circle into six equal parts, with each sextant corresponding to 60 degrees. This unit is traditionally used in navigation, particularly in the context of sextants, the instruments used to measure the angle between a celestial object and the horizon.
