Convert Degree to Arcminute (Minute Angle)
Unit definitions
Degree
The degree is a unit of angle commonly used in daily life. One full circle consists of $360$ degrees.
Arcminute (Minute Angle)
$\frac{1}{60}$ of a degree is an arcminute.
How to convert Degree to Arcminute (Minute Angle)
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{′}} = \text{Angle}_{\text{°}} \cdot 60$$
Examples
Example 1
Convert $25.0\ \text{°}$ to $\text{′}$.
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{′}} = 25.0 \cdot 60$$
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{′}} = 1500$$
$$\therefore \ 25.0\ \text{°} = 1500 \ \text{′}$$
Example 2
Convert $75.0\ \text{°}$ to $\text{′}$.
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{′}} = 75.0 \cdot 60$$
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{′}} = 4500$$
$$\therefore \ 75.0\ \text{°} = 4500 \ \text{′}$$
Example 3
Convert $105.0\ \text{°}$ to $\text{′}$.
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{′}} = 105.0 \cdot 60$$
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{′}} = 6300$$
$$\therefore \ 105.0\ \text{°} = 6300 \ \text{′}$$
Example 4
Convert $150.0\ \text{°}$ to $\text{′}$.
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{′}} = 150.0 \cdot 60$$
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{′}} = 9000$$
$$\therefore \ 150.0\ \text{°} = 9000 \ \text{′}$$
Example 5
Convert $195.0\ \text{°}$ to $\text{′}$.
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{′}} = 195.0 \cdot 60$$
$$\text{Angle}_{\text{′}} = 11700$$
$$\therefore \ 195.0\ \text{°} = 11700 \ \text{′}$$
