Question

Convert the angle to a decimal in degrees
132*52'48"

Answer 1

To start, we should separate the three sets of values. Firstly, the 132 is already in degrees, so we'll set that aside. Now, once that's done, we have to make the "52'" into degrees. This is done by dividing that by 60. What does that equal?

Answer 2

.8666666666667

I'll check, just one moment.

Answer 5

You're correct. Now, add that to the first part, where we already had degrees given. What is their sum?

Answer 6

132.86666666667

Answer 7

Correct! Now we have to take the last given part, "48''", and divide that by 3600. What does that come out to?

Answer 8

.013333333333333333

Answer 9

Correct again! Having that, add that to the number you just told me was the sum of the first two parts in degrees. What's their sum?

Answer 10
