There are four quadrants- North , East, South, and West each is at 90 degrees. this makes up the four main points of the compass- the cardinal directions. On paper and in the air- a right angle is 90 degrees, it is also vertical, plumb, straight up and down-0r to use the airman"s expression-Twelve O"Clock high name of a famous war film and later Tv series. So there are four right angles, or quadrants, in a circle. Learn how to Box the Compass,. and it will seem much easier.
