How to Convert Degrees to Minutes - ALIGNMENT TIPS

yes we understand minutes and degrees, the hard part is understanding how to convert decimal degrees to degrees and minutes. shit is so confusing

I was searching for how 1degree is eqal to 60 minss

Here minutes , degree is not depend on clock ?please 🤔🤔🤔

So these are not minutes and seconds we use for measurement of time . Now i get it

So I just started optometry school and they do degrees in minutes of arc which I never heard of, and of all the videos out there this explained it the best....thank you!

But can someone explain why angle measure ( degrees ) and time measure ( minutes) are related.? Please ❤️

Why!? Why not just say 0.25 degrees. You want to know your inches out? Using your 8ft (96in) board, sin(0.25 degrees) x 96inches. Voila!

Shitter rating of 7.0

ok... but why?

I love videos like this. I think Motor Trend uses to have a series like this and I loved watching it.

I get it. It just seems an arbitrary when we now have micrometers. This comes from a time when accuracy had to be managed mechanically but lacked the precision. We just don't need it anymore.

You can even take it a step further and brake down each minute the same way and get seconds. An example of how it looks written: 90° 15’ 30”

🤯

Really insightful

This was informative. More videos like this please!

I suck at math but I want to be an engineer smh I'm in for a lot of hell

Shiiit, you people think this is complicated or confusing? Start looking at the different calculations and formulas involved in long range shooting: MOA, Coriolis Effect, hold over, determining distance, calculating a target's speed, etc. That's some shit that will melt your brain.

That was so money!

Thanks for this because I was seriously confused when he said minutes in knuckle busters like...wtf did he just say

The more you know

should just use radians

I wish I could understand how a degree has it's own minutes. If you run a straight line out of the center of the circle how can it change past the outer diameter of the circle do they bend what ever the minute is beyond the edge of the circumference

I used that for electronics at work some weeks back, because the two phases of the current that I measured were given in minutes
And I was like shit my test phase is three minutes off the normal phase
And the dude was like "that ain't much, anyhow we have 8min tolerance"
I mean c'mon at some point precision is a little whacky

In engineering you use degrees, minutes and seconds to measure precise angles. I convert it to decimal as it’s much easier for calculations and my dumb brain to figure out.

Wheres my mortorman and artillery guys at

Radian circles and pie where oh so fun in calculus the

Learning

I thought people learn this at school, but I guess I'm wrong. Most probably depends where you live, I'm from Moldova (Europe)

...The More You Know!

Mind blown!

Anyone familiar with shooting, this is what a minute of angle is or MOA. Take 1 degree which is a thin slice of pizza. Slice that into 60 pieces and each piece is one minute. Pizza and guns and now you understand minutes of angle. Next class will be miliradians....

There are actually seconds beyond minutes same thing 60 seconds per minute I belive so there is like 360 seconds for every degree, that's only needed in like surveying though.

Siiiiick!

My brain hurts

A good Irish fella

Wtf you guys actually know about math algebra graphs and shyt lmfao wait it wasn't you all explaining

But will the dudes at the local shop know this

Self explanatory 🤔

Then you notice your calculator is set to radians and you just turned in your test.

So basically a minute is 1/60th of a degree

Shyt is getting deep!....
My head hurts now

That guys Irish

who draws their labels like that D:

Story time with liem nissen

I learned about using minutes as a measurement of angles 1 week before I took my fundamentals of engineering exam 😂😂

Sick

It's just a cats whisker away. No need to get so precise, Rubber tires and bushings with flexing everything.
simple trig ,Tangent rise and run. Any Carpenter can tell ya how.

I fell asleep 4 times during this 2 min video

Great now Ill proceed to tell the alignment guys at Wheel Works that the toe is 15 mins off on my car.

Oh man 6 videos in roughly 24 hours I love this new layout so much
