arcminute
An arcminute is a unit of measurement for angles, often used in astronomy, mathematics, and physics. It is abbreviated as ' or min and is equal to 1/60th of one degree of a circle. Therefore, a full circle contains 21,600 arcminutes. Arcminutes are further divided into arcseconds. It is called an "arcminute" because it is a minute portion of a degree, similar to how a minute of time is a minute portion of an hour.
