Because it's shape is that of a cirlce and there are 360 degrees in a circle.
It rotated 15 degrees, because 360 divided by 24 is 15, and 15 times 3 is 45.
There are 45 degrees in an octant because an octant is 1 eighth of a circle, and a circle is 360 degrees, and 45 degrees is one eighth of 360.
360
360 divided by 24 is 15. Times 2 is 30...I don't know if there are other factors that come into play, but it seems right.
360 degrees
The total circumference is (arc length) times (360) divided by (the angle degrees)
The entire circumference has a central angle of 360 degrees. The arc is a fraction of the circumference. The fraction is (central angle) divided by (360). So the arc length is: (circumference) x (central angle) / (360) .
360 degrees
Qrweer
(lenth of arc/circumference)*360 degrees
360 degrees in a circle 120 degrees = 12mm 360 degrees = 36mm Therefore the circumference of the circle is 36mm.
A circle's circumference has 360 degrees around it.
360 degrees - Circumference A+
The "meaning" of this assignment of degrees, minutes and seconds is that it is a form of notation. We can accurately locate things by using a specified measurement, and a given reference, and in this case it's the Greenwich Mean.
The measure of the central angle divided by 360 degrees equals the arc length divided by circumference. So 36 degrees divided by 360 degrees equals 2pi cm/ 2pi*radius. 1/10=1/radius. Radius=10 cm.
The circumference of a circle is 360 degrees. 1/4 of 360 is 90. So 90 degrees is a quarter of a circle. It is called a quadrant.
A circle is divided into 360 degrees.
