Degrees, minutes, and seconds are just like time, so in order to add 00°-35-52 + 25°-34-22, you would have to change them into decimal form, add, then convert back to HMS
Why do some Surveyors like to put a 0 in front of a degree ready like say N 015 E, what does this help and what does it indicate to another Surveyor? Could you briefly explain the reason?
I would assume they were taught to place all number characters as a degree. So instead of N1-24'-36" E they were taught N001-24'36"E. It all means the same.
Finally! Someone explaining this concept who doesn't speak broken English! 😃
This is the best video on You Tube about the differences between bearings and Azimuths you are a good teacher.
I like the breakdown.
Where do you get the 40 min from do you have to multiply or divide by 360/60?

The 40min is just an example

I agree, when drafting the zero replaces the hundred character so there is no mistake
You are explaining for yourself,not for us ...very poor explanation...
Find the videos that make sense for you
