CALCULATOR
Degrees to Seconds Converter
Degrees to Seconds. Example: Value in °: 2.5 gives 9000 arcsec. Converts nonnegative angle magnitudes: one degree contains 60 arcminutes or 3600 arcseconds. These are angles, not elapsed minutes or seconds. Signed coordinates and DMS formatting are separate tools.
How the calculation works
value × 3600
Worked example
With value in ° 1 °, result in arcsec is 3,600 arcsec.
