Degree To Gradian (° To Grad) Converter

The Degree To Gradian (° To Grad) Converter is a simple tool designed to help you convert angles measured in degrees into gradians. This is useful in various fields such as surveying, engineering, and mathematics where different units are used to measure angles.

In this converter, the primary units are degrees (°) and gradians (Grad). A degree is a common unit for measuring angles, where a full circle is divided into 360 equal parts. One degree is therefore 1/360 of a circle.

Gradians, also known as grads or gon, divide a circle into 400 equal parts. This means that one full circle equals 400 gradians. This system is often used in surveying because it simplifies certain calculations.

The formula to convert degrees to gradians is straightforward:
Grad = Degrees × (200 / 180) or simplified as
Grad = Degrees × (10 / 9).
For example, to convert 90° to gradians:
Grad = 90 × (200 / 180) = 90 × (10 / 9) = 100 gradians.

Using this converter, you can easily input an angle in degrees and receive the equivalent measurement in gradians, making your calculations quick and accurate. Whether you’re working on a project or learning about different angle measurement systems, this tool simplifies the conversion process.
