How to Convert Arcseconds to Degrees

  1. Understand the relationship between units:
    • 1 degree = 60 arcminutes
    • 1 arcminute = 60 arcseconds
  2. Combine these relationships:
    • 1 degree = 60 arcminutes × 60 arcseconds per arcminute
    • 1 degree = 3600 arcseconds
  3. Convert arcseconds to degrees:
    • To convert arcseconds to degrees, divide the number of arcseconds by 3600.
    • degrees = arcseconds ÷ 3600

Example

  • Convert 7200 arcseconds to degrees:
    • degrees = 7200 arcseconds ÷ 3600
    • degrees = 2

That’s it! You now know how to convert arcseconds to degrees.
