Understanding Arcseconds and Radians

Arcseconds (″)

An arcsecond is 1/3600 of a degree, representing a very precise angular measurement. It's commonly used in astronomy and surveying for precise angular measurements.

Radians (rad)

A radian is the SI unit for measuring angles, defined as the ratio of arc length to radius. One complete circle is approximately 6.28318 radians (2Ï€).
