Question

Convert the angle to degrees, minutes, and seconds. 292.41°

Answer 1

292 degrees 24 minutes and 36 seconds:

292° 24' 36"

Explanation:

There are 60 minutes in a degree and 60 seconds in a minute.

so 0.41 degrees = 0.41 * 60 = 24.6 minutes

and 0.6 of a minute = 0.6 * 60 = 36 seconds.

Answer 2

292° 24' 36"

Explanation:

d = int(292.41°) = 292°

m = int((292.41° - 292°) × 60) = 24'

s = (292.41° - 292° - 24'/60) × 3600 = 36"

292.41°

= 292° 24' 36"
