They used a Hadley's Quadrant, which was used to measure the angular distance between two points. They also used a Mariner's compass, a pocket compass, and a set of planespheres and artificial horizons.
The compass is used to measure angles. The straightedge is used to draw a straight line. The two items together, are used to measure and draw angles and lines in geometric drawings.
The measurement tool called a compass (a divider caliper, two rods on a hinge) is used for drafting and for measurement of arc distances. It may be considered to be a tool of mathematics, particularly geometry.The navigational tool called a compass (magnetic compass) determines direction based on the heading compared to the direction of the magnetic north pole and is not likely to be considered to be a tool of mathematics.

From which two cultures did the civilisation of ancient Greece spring? Can you tell me!
Latin and Greek are the two ancient languages from which many medical terms are derived.

Greece and Rome

Hinduism and Buddhism were Ancient India's main cultures. There were also lower religions and philosophy, but those were the main two.
How were the ancient Egyptian pyramids constructed and what techniques were used to build such monumental structures? What is the significance of the shape and design of pyramids in ancient cultures and what purposes did they serve, such as religious, burial, or architectural significance?
Two such bacteria cultures, Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus are used to make all yogurts
Humanism arose from the study of ancient Greek and Roman cultures. The focus was on human potential, achievements, and capabilities, drawing inspiration from the teachings of classical authors such as Plato, Aristotle, and Cicero.
