How to Convert Gons to Gradians
1 gons = 1 grads
1 grads = 1 gons
Example: convert 10 gons to grads: 10 gons = 10 × 1 gons = 10 gons
Gons
Definition: Gons are equivalent to gradians, where a right angle equals 100 gons, and a full rotation equals 400 gons.
History: Gons, like gradians, were introduced as part of the metric system to create a more decimal-friendly angular measurement. Although widely used in European surveying, the system never fully replaced degrees and radians in broader scientific and engineering fields.
Gradians
Definition: A gradian (or gon) is a unit of angular measurement where a right angle is divided into 100 gradians, making a full rotation equal to 400 gradians.
History: The gradian system was developed in the late 18th century during the French Revolution as part of the metric system. It was designed to simplify calculations by aligning with decimal-based measurements, though it remains less commonly used today compared to degrees and radians.
