Which outcome occurs when using quadrant astrolabes for navigation?

A)Simplified altitude measurement dominates accuracy
B)Consistent temporal drift under fixed conditions
C)High accuracy celestial longitude measurement
D)Reduced complexity causes lower cost

💡 Explanation

Altitude measurements relied on direct observation simplification, therefore easing use, because it removed calculation complexity of spherical trigonometry through direct angle readings from alignment, rather than longitude approximations in navigation.
