| moa Minute of arc - دقيقة الزاوية Explanation: minute of arc, or arcminute or minute of angle (MOA), is a unit of angular measurement, equal to one sixtieth (1/60) of one degree.[1] This conversion is recognised for calculations involving SI Units.[2] Since one degree is defined as one three hundred and sixtieth (1/360) of a circle, 1 minute of arc is 1/21,600 of the same. It is used in those fields which require a unit for the expression of small angles, such as astronomy, navigation and marksmanship. One arcsecond =1/3600 of a degree. |
