  • Page 2 In the degrees, minutes, seconds (or DMS) format, the same angle is 33 degrees, 30 minutes. The HP 30S can work with angles in either measurement system and provides the DRG ( c) and DMS ( —A) menus to convert between them.
  • Page 3 HP 30S Converting Angles and Times The entry line contains 25º. When this is evaluated by the ykey, the HP 30S will convert 25º into the current angle unit, i.e. radians. Answer: 0.436332313 radians. Example 2: Convert 25º into grads.
  • Page 4 Example 7: Convert an angle of 118º 27’ 59’’ into decimal degrees. Solution: On the HP 30S there is no specific function to convert DMS into decimal degrees, because such conversion is done automatically when processing the entry line, i.e. after pressing the y key. The º, ‘...
