Degree is a unit of measurement of plane angle. One full rotation is considered as 360 degrees. The degree is also referred as degree of arc, arcdegree or arcdegree. The specific reason of choosing degree as a unit of rotations and angles is pretty unclear, but as per historical facts, 360 is approximately the number of days in a year. The symbol for Degree is deg.
Arcmin also known as arc minute or minute arc is a unit of angular measurement. One minute of arc is equal to 1/21600 of a turn. That means one full circle will have 21600 arcminutes. This unit was originated in Babylonian astronomy as sexagesimal subdivisions of the degree. It is primarily used in fields where most of the work involves working with small angles such as optometry, ophthalmology, and astronomy. In astronomy related work, it is used for comparison of angular diameter of Moon, Sun, and planets. Apart from that, it is also used in cartography and navigation. The symbol for Arcmin is arcmin.
