Degree (°)
The degree divides a full circle into 360 parts and is convenient for geometry, maps, compasses, and everyday angles.
History: the angular degree comes from the sexagesimal tradition of dividing a circle into 360 parts.
Quickly convert degrees to arcseconds without lookup tables or manual math.
This page is focused on converting degrees to arcseconds. Type a number into the first field and the result appears immediately in the second field.
Example: 1 ° = 3600 ″. Conversion formula: result = value × 0.017453292519943 / 4.8481368110954E-6.
Use this converter for everyday calculations, study notes, engineering checks, and quick value verification without installing a separate app.

The arcsecond equals 1/60 of an arcminute and is needed for very small angles.
History: the arcsecond arose as a further sexagesimal division of the arcminute for precise astronomy.
Enter a value in the Degree field. The converter applies the formula "result = value × 0.017453292519943 / 4.8481368110954E-6" and immediately shows the result in arcseconds.
