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.

Right Angles unit in Angle

Right angles are a fundamental unit of angular measurement representing an angle of 90 degrees, or one-quarter of a full circle. Right angles are ubiquitous in geometry, engineering, and construction, forming the basis of perpendicularity and orthogonality in many designs, structures, and mathematical concepts.
