Sexagesimal is a numeral system based on the number sixty. It is primarily known for its use in measuring time, angles, and geographic coordinates, where 60 seconds make a minute and 60 minutes make an hour. The system dates back to ancient Mesopotamia and is still evident in modern contexts, such as in the division of circles, where a full circle is 360 degrees.
