Define a degree measure.

Answer»

If a rotation from the initial side to terminal side is (1/360)th of a revolution, the angle is said to have a measure of one degree, written as 1°.

Keen eye: A degree is divided into 60 minutes and a minute is divided into 60 seconds. One sixtieth of a degree is called a minute, written as 1′ and one sixtieth of a minute is called second, written as 1″ 

∴ 1 ° – 60′ 

1’= 60″
