About Gradian (gon)
Also called a gon or grad, the gradian divides a right angle into exactly 100 parts, making a full circle 400 gradians. Developed during the French Revolution alongside the metric system, gradians are used in some surveying instruments and are standard on scientific calculators alongside degree and radian modes.
About Degree (°)
One 360th of a full rotation, the degree has been used since ancient Babylonian astronomy, likely chosen because 360 approximates the number of days in a year and has many convenient divisors. Navigation, surveying, architecture, and everyday angle descriptions all use degrees as their primary unit.
