Answer 1

Answer:

expreess 47.87° angles in degree minute and seconds

Answer 2

Given:

47.87° angle

To Find:

Express it in degree minute and second format

Solution:

To convert a decimal degree into minutes and seconds format we multiply the part after the decimal with 60 and take the before part which will be minute and from that value taking the after decimal part and again multiplying it by 60 then rounding that number that will be the seconds

So, applying the same process here to find the value

47.87= 0.87*60

        =52.2

which will be 52 minutes and now again multiplying the 0.2 part with 60

=0.2*60

=12

so it will be 12 seconds

Hence, 47.87° in minutes and seconds format will be 47°52min12sec.
