Degrees, minutes, and seconds are just like time, so in order to add 00°-35-52 + 25°-34-22, you would have to change them into decimal form, add, then convert back to HMS
Why do some Surveyors like to put a 0 in front of a degree ready like say N 015 E, what does this help and what does it indicate to another Surveyor? Could you briefly explain the reason?
I would assume they were taught to place all number characters as a degree. So instead of N1-24'-36" E they were taught N001-24'36"E. It all means the same.
This is the best video on You Tube about the differences between bearings and Azimuths you are a good teacher.
Finally! Someone explaining this concept who doesn't speak broken English! 😃
I like the breakdown.
Where do you get the 40 min from do you have to multiply or divide by 360/60?

The 40min is just an example

I agree, when drafting the zero replaces the hundred character so there is no mistake
