Convert Grad to Deg (Angle)
Description:
Gradians and degrees are both used to measure angles, but they divide the circle differently. One gradian equals 0.9 degrees. While degrees split a circle into 360 parts, gradians divide it into 400, making them more compatible with decimal-based calculations.
For example, 100 gradians equals 90 degrees — a value commonly used in surveying and civil engineering to represent right angles. This conversion is useful when transitioning between traditional and modern measurement systems. Degrees are more familiar in everyday contexts, while gradians simplify slope and bearing calculations. Converting gradians to degrees allows professionals to integrate decimal-based data into charts, instruments, and software that rely on degree-based inputs. This relationship also appears in geodesy and mapping, where precision and consistency are essential for accurate spatial analysis.
Tooltips:
- Grad: Gradian: equals 0.9°. 400 gradians in a full circle.
- Deg: Degree: common unit of angle. 360° in a full circle.
