Grades
Definition: Grades are another term for gradians, with one grade being equal to one gradian. A full circle consists of 400 grades.
History: Grades, or gradians, originated from the same decimal-based system developed during the French Revolution. While the system aimed to simplify angle measurement, its adoption remained limited outside of specific engineering and surveying applications.
Turns
Definition: A turn (also known as a revolution or full rotation) is a unit of angular measurement equivalent to 360 degrees or 2π radians. It represents a complete circular movement back to the starting position.
History: The concept of a turn as a unit of measurement has been used throughout history in various mathematical and engineering applications. The idea of a full rotation being equivalent to 360 degrees likely originated from ancient astronomical observations, where the Earth’s orbit around the Sun was divided into 360 parts.
