Converting from Octant (octant) to Degree (°) | Angle

What is Octant (octant)

An octant is a unit of measuring angles in geometry. It divides a full circle into 8 equal parts, with each octant measuring 45°. Octants are commonly used in astronomy and navigation.

What is Degree (°)

Degrees are the most commonly used unit to measure angles. A full circle is divided into 360 degrees, with each degree further divided into minutes and seconds. Degrees are widely used in mathematics, physics, engineering, and everyday life.
