Full angle is a designation for the 360 ° angle and a unit of measurement for the physical size of plane angles . When a radial ray is rotated 360 ° around its center, its tip makes a full - or full - circular motion.
The full angle is not an SI unit , but is a legal unit in the EU and Switzerland . It is dealt with in DIN 1301-1 , edition 2010-10 in a table "Generally applicable units outside the SI". The unit full angle has no unit symbol . Decimal multiples or parts may not be formed with SI prefixes .
The German standard DIN 1315 (1974-03) recommended the unit symbol “pla” (from Latin plenus angulus ) for the full angle. Since 2011 the pocket calculators HP 39gII and HP Prime have supported the unit symbol “tr” (from English turn ) for full angle.
units
A full angle corresponds in the various angular dimensions :
- 1 full angle = 360 ° = 360 degrees
- 1 full angle = 2 rad in radians
- 1 full angle = 400 g = 400 gon = 400 grads (only still used in surveying )
- 1 full angle = 4 ∟ = 4 right angles (former legal entity in Germany and Switzerland)
- 1 full angle = 32 "= 32 nautical lines
- 1 full angle = 6400¯ = 6400 mil = 6400 artillery line
- 1 full angle = 24 h = 1440 m = 86400 s per hour
