Degrees to arcseconds Converter

Enter the degrees, then press Calculate. The arcseconds stay hidden while you type.

Swap

Press Calculate after the entries are in.

What this angle conversion is for

Use this page when a measurement is written in degrees and the next step needs arcseconds. The number stays blank until you press Calculate, so a half-typed entry is never mistaken for the answer.

The factor

Multiply by the factor: 1 degree = 3,600 arcseconds.

A worked example

10 degrees are 36,000 arcseconds. Multiply the result by the reverse factor if you want the original number back.

How to check it

Write the factor down, do the multiply on paper, and compare it with the result card. If you change a sentence on this page, edit the HTML file and reload. The form and this note live in the same file.

The reverse conversion is arcseconds to degrees. A nearby pair in the same units is degrees to milliradians. When the converted number is the input to a job, continue with the trigonometry.
