What are Degree and Grad

A degree is a unit of measurement for angles, where one degree represents 1/360th of a full circle. It's denoted by the symbol ° and is widely used in fields such as mathematics, engineering, and geography.

A grad, also known as a gon or grade, is a unit of angle measurement in which one grad is 1/400th of a full circle. It's particularly used in surveying and is convenient for metric system alignment.

History of Degree and Grad

The concept of measuring angles in grads originated from the metric system, offering a unit that aligns with the decimalized system. It divides a right angle into 100 equal parts, making calculations more straightforward for certain applications, especially in land surveying.
