Converting from Degree (°) to Sign (sign) | Angle

What is Degree (°)

Degree (°) is a unit of measurement used to quantify angles in a circle. One complete revolution around a circle is equal to 360 degrees. Degrees are commonly used in geometry, trigonometry, and navigation.

What is Sign (sign)

Sign (sign) is another unit of angular measurement, with one sign equivalent to 30 degrees. It is primarily used in astronomy for measuring the elongation of a planet from the sun. The sign system divides the circle into 12 signs, each representing 30°.

Conversion Formulas

The default conversion between degree (°) and sign is as follows:

1°=0.03333333(sign)

1(sign)=30°

Some additional conversions include:

• 9° = 0.3 sign
• 9 sign = 270°
• 8° = 0.2666667 sign
• 8 sign = 240°
• 14° = 0.4666667 sign
• 14 sign = 420°

Examples

1. Convert 12 degrees to signs:

12°×0.03333333=0.4(sign)

2. Convert 7 signs to degrees:

7(sign)×30=210°

3. Convert 21 degrees to signs:

21°×0.03333333=0.7(sign)

By using the conversion formulas provided, you can easily convert angles from degrees to signs and vice versa. Apply these calculations to accurately convert between degree and sign measurements.
