1 minute=how many degree??

Answer 1

One-sixtieth. There are 60 minutes in a degree and 60 seconds in a minute. This is based on the Babylonian sexagesimal (base-60) counting sytem, which defined a circle as consisting of 360 degrees (and a year as consisting of 360 days (12 x 30-day months) with the 5 or 6 extra days accumulated o er a 6-year period to create an extra 13th month that year).

Thus minutes and seconds as fractions of hours on the clock come from the same sexagesimal system, that became standard in the Ancient World 4,000 years ago.

Answer 2

1 minute = 1/60 degree

It goes like this: degrees, minutes, seconds

60 seconds = 1 minute
60 minutes = 1 degree

Extra information:
180 degrees = pi
360 degrees = 2 * pi

Answer 3

1 minute = 1/60 degrees.

Answer 4

1 degree = 60 minutes, so 1 minute = 1/60 degree

Answer 5

1/60 degree

60 minutes = 1 degree

use dimensional analysis
1 minute * (1 degree / 60 minutes) = 1/60 degrees
{minutes cancel}

Answer 6

60 minutes make a degree. Therefore, 1 minute=1/60th of a degree.

Answer 7

60 min in one revolution (60min/1rev)
1 rev produces 360 degrees (1rev/360degrees)
times together so that revs cancel
(60min/1rev)(1rev/360 degrees)= (60/360) min per degree now flip to get how many degrees per min you have. The ratio would be 1 min produces (360/60)=6 degrees. So there are 6 degrees in one minute.
Test it out by doing hay if i have 60 minutes and each of my minutes equals x (plug in 6) degrees then 60 times x should = 360.
Um go tell everyone to rethink their answers. They don't make any since.
5 out of 4 people have trouble with fractions.

Answer 8

1/60

Answer 9

1 degree=60 min
1 min= 1/60=0.01666 deg

Answer 10

1minute is 6 degree....at least in trigonometry
