A slice (Pie)
Octant
Well, isn't that a happy little question! One eighth of a circle is 12.5% of the whole circle. Just imagine that little slice fitting in perfectly with the rest of the circle, creating a beautiful harmony of shapes and percentages.
One eighth of a full circle is equal to 45 degrees. A full circle is 360 degrees, so to find one eighth of that, you divide 360 by 8, which equals 45. This is a fundamental concept in geometry and trigonometry, where understanding angles and their measurements is crucial.
12.5%
360 divided by 8
One eighth plus one eighth is one fourth.
Half circle plus quarter circle is equal to three-fourths of a circle. Three-fourths of a circle plus one eighth of a circle is seven-eighths. You still need one more eighth to complete the circle.
One eighth of a circle.
Semi-quadrant
There are 45 degrees in an octant because an octant is 1 eighth of a circle, and a circle is 360 degrees, and 45 degrees is one eighth of 360.
No. The Diameter is the length from one end to the next. The radius is half of that.

One eighth of a turn
A similar but smaller instrument called the octant. The octant was one eighth ("octo" is latin for eight) of a circle, while a sextant ("sextus" is Latin for "six") is one sixth of a circle. An even earlier instrument was called a quadrant. Enter your guesses as to how big a "quadrant" is in the Discussion area!
Since an entire circle is 2π radians, 1/8 would be π/4
A 1/4 of a circle is 90 degrees 1/8 of a circle is 45 degrees and they both add up to 135 degrees
360/8 = 45 degrees
