Hogwarts RPG Name:
Asher Stinson
Second Year
Default Astronomy Lesson 3 post 2-3

After noting the location of Polaris on his parchment, Asher took out his Sextant and began to calculate the proper location. "OK, so latitude is 90 degrees and I need to subtract the angle." Holding the sextant up and to the sky, Asher continued to figure on the angle. "Hmm, I think that is 42 degrees." He wrote down the angle on his parchment.

Quote:
latitude= 90- sextant angle

Latitude= 90-42= 48

Latitude= 48
"That wasn't too bad." he gather his things and looked around the mysterious room one last time before heading towards the door. "I hope I can find this place again. It's really neat."
