Common angle conversion mistakes

  • The calculator is in the wrong mode. SIN() in a spreadsheet, Math.sin in code and a calculator in radian mode all read 90 as radians, so sin(90) gives about 0.894, not 1. Convert degrees to radians first, or switch the calculator to degree mode.
  • A mil is not the same everywhere. The NATO mil is 1/6,400 of a turn, the old Swedish streck 1/6,300, and some armies use 1/6,000. Check which scale the sight or map uses, or the target lands off at long range.
  • Gradians and degrees are easy to mix up, since both show as plain numbers on the instrument. A right angle is 90° but 100 gon, and 1 gon is smaller than 1°. Check the unit setting on the instrument.
