Calculation Info

The Quadrant To Sextant (To ?) Converter is a handy tool designed to help users convert measurements from quadrants to sextants, two units commonly used in navigation and astronomy. Understanding these units is essential for accurate readings and calculations.

A quadrant is a unit of angular measurement equal to 1/4 of a circle, which is 90 degrees. It is often used in navigation to measure angles between celestial objects and the horizon. The formula to convert quadrants to degrees is: Degrees = Quadrants × 90

A sextant, on the other hand, is a unit that represents 1/6 of a circle, which equals 60 degrees. Sextants are traditionally used in celestial navigation to measure the angle between a celestial object and the horizon. The conversion formula from sextants to degrees is: Degrees = Sextants × 60

The converter allows you to input a value in quadrants or sextants and quickly see the equivalent measurement in degrees. This helps users easily switch between units, ensuring precise calculations in navigation, astronomy, or related fields. Simply enter your value, select the unit, and the tool will perform the conversion instantly, providing you with accurate results every time.
