+Fąhəəm Jąn if the sum of your angles in the given shape is less than what it should be, then you have to add the correction. If the sum of angles in the given shape is more than what it should be, then you subtract the correction. Thank you for watching and your comments.
Hello Josethy. Thank you for watching and for your question, I appreciate it. To add the angles you can do it couple of ways. You can convert the minutes and seconds to decimal and then add them or you can add them straight in degrees-minutes-seconds format. To do either one it's easier if you use a calculator that can take angles in degrees-minutes-seconds format.
Another way is to do it by hand. Just like up, how I show it on the video, and start on the right side with the seconds and work yourself towards the degrees. Remember that each minute has 60 seconds.
Hello Nour, First of all thank you for watching our video and most importantly asking questions. 60 minutes equal to 1 degree, in the degrees-minutes-seconds format for calling out an angle. In surveying and other disciplines it is common to call out angles in decimals and in degrees-minutes-seconds format. The last one being the one most used in the California PE Civil Surveying Exam. You could also call out angles in radians. The common practice for the given application will indicate the most appropriate way. I do not see how you could use feet-inches to call out an angle. I hope that helps and thank you for watching.
jruby805 the video is labeled as review angles. Please let me know if you have any specific questions and I will be happy to answer. please let me know if you have trouble finding the video. Thank you for watching.
