a measure of angle, not distance
a step or stage in a process, especially in an ascending or descending scale, a relative condition or state of being, the relative intensity, extent, measure, or amount of a quality, attribute, or action
a unit of measurement for an angle
a unit of angle measurement. 0 degrees corresponds to no tilt; 180 degrees corresponds to a half-turn; 360 degrees corresponds to a full turn. POV-Ray uses degrees whenever angles are required. Degrees above 360 and below 0 are valid, but are mapped back to between 0 and 360.
A unit used to measure temperature.
(symbol °) Angular measurement. A circle is divided uniformly into 360 degrees, so half a circle is 180°, a quarter 90°, etc.
A degree is a unit of measurement; a degree is also written °. There are 360 degrees in a circle. Each degree is divided into 60 minutes, written as the symbol '. For example, 10 and a half degrees is written 10° 30'.
A measurement of an angle where 360 degrees would be a circle.
A unit used in the measurement of angles, heavily used particularly in astronomy. Due to ancient Babylonian mathematics, we still divide a circle into 360 even units of arc and call each of these units one degree. The entire sky, therefore, spans 360 degrees. Up to about 180 degrees of sky is visible from any given point on earth with an unobstructed horizon (as measured from, say, east to west, or north to south). The degree is used to make measurements of distance, or position (as with declination) in astronomy. In turn, a degree is composed of 60 minutes of arc, and also of 360 seconds of arc
1/360 of a circle. When used in geographic coordinates, degrees are measured from the Equator and the Prime Meridian, going North, South, East and West. Degrees are further divided into minutes and seconds, or may be expressed in decimal degrees. Degrees are usually represented by the degree symbol (°).
A unit of angular measure. There are 360 degrees in a complete circle.

A unit (abbreviated as °) for measuring direction as if from the centre of a circle. There are 360 degrees in a circle. Each degree can be subdivided into 60 minutes (abbreviated as '). Each minute can be divided into 60 seconds (abbreviated as "). Bearings and declination, for example, are usually (but not always) measured in degrees.

The zodiac is divided into 360 equal degrees, marked out into into twelve signs of thirty degrees each. One degree contains 60 minutes and each minute contains 60 seconds of longitudinal arc (in Indian astrology even smaller subdivisions are employed). Degrees themselves have meanings, distinguished from the meaning of the sign and decan under which they are subsumed.
The zodiac is divided into 360 equal degrees, which are themselves divided into twelve signs of thirty degrees each. One degree contains 60 minutes and each minute contains 60 seconds of longitudinal arc.
