HMS (dd.mmss)
This function works with time and angles. It converts degrees, minutes and
seconds to degrees, and also hours, minutes and seconds to decimal time.
The calculator can convert a value such as
45 23 17
′′′
"
if you put it into the form 45.2317
and then use the HMS function.
Eg. sin( 45 23 17
′′′
"
) would be done as
SIN(HMS (45.2317))
cos(537
′′′
"
) would be done as COS(HMS (5.0307))
This function, together with HMS, can also be used to deal with time.
Eg. What time will it be 1 hr 34 min. and 15 sec. after
3 min. past 6 pm?
Type: HMS (18.03)+HMS (1.3415)
Ans: 37 min. 15 sec. past 7 pm. (see right)

HMS(num)
This function works in the same way as the
HMS function but in the opposite direction. It
converts decimal degrees (or time) to degrees
(or hours), minutes and seconds. The format of
the returned answer is DD.MMSS (HH.MMSS)
Eg. 15 5⋅
"
would become
15 3⋅
, meaning 15 30
"
.
45.38805555 " 45.2317 ( 45 23 17
′′
"
)
3.75 hours " 3.45 (3 hours 45 min.)
