Wind direction is usually identified by the heading from which it is blowing, in degrees (like the 360 degrees of the compass). More commonly, it is referred to in
The reason for this is that it is a surveyor's compass with fixed sites along the north south axis and this allows easy non reversed readings of bearings. When you turn the compass siting on this axis the needle of course follows magnetic north. Align the sights with magnetic north and then turn the compass clockwise 45 degrees which should be North East or N 45 degrees E and you will see that the needle is showing the correct bearing because the East and West are reversed.

To find east on a compass hold it with 'N' or north at the top. East is 90 degrees or one quarter of the circle to the right.
That would be an angle; the SI unit for angle is the radian. However, that is not the unit that is commonly used in this case.

There are a few different types of compass roses, including the Mariner's rose, the Sidereal rose, and the Classical rose. Variations exist with the common compass rose in that it depends on how many points or degrees one desires in said compass rose.

On a compass, the direction with a bearing of 450 degrees is located in the northwest region. The standard compass measures the direction in degrees, starting from North at 0 degrees and proceeding clockwise until 360 degrees. Hence, a bearing of 450 degrees is just beyond the West direction, which is marked at 270 degrees, and points towards the northwest. โโฃโฃโโขโฏย ย โฏ:โโฏย ย โฏ/โโฏย ย โฏ/โโฆโฆโฆโฏย ย โฏ.โโโโโโขโฃโโกโโกโฃโฏย ย โฏ.โโโโโฏย ย โฏ/โโกโโโโกโฏย ย โฏ/โโขโกโคโฅโคโงโฏย ย โฏ/โโโโโโฅโโโโโโฏย ย โฏ/โ
If you look at a compass, it points north. Each mark is one degree, and there are 360 on a compass, so 30 degrees east of north means that you head towards the thirtieth park to the east (right) of north. On a watch, if 12 o'clock is north, then 1 o'clock is thirty degrees east of it.
