Each degree isdivided into 60 equal parts called minutes, , and each minute into60 equal parts called seconds, . Thus to represent an angle of 23degrees, 47 minutes, and 9 seconds, write 23° 47 9. The relations of these units may be summarized as follows: 60 seconds () = 1 minute () 60 minutes = 1 degree (°) 360 degrees = 1 circle Two angles are complementarywhen their sum is equal to one rightangle or 90°; they are supplementwrywhen their sum is equal to two rightangles or 180°. Thus, an angle of
