-
Specifies fractional precision. Enter a number from 0 to 8.
-
Direction for angle 0
-
Specifies the direction of the angle 0. The default direction for 0 degrees is to the east quadrant, or 3 o'clock. Enter a number the corresponds to the direction you want to use. The format of this number depends on the system of angle measure you specified. You can also specify points to set the direction:
