Degree Symbol °

# Degree Symbol

Degree symbol is °. Sometimes students or those who deal with mathematics, physics or various kinds of calculations may need to type a degree sign, but we do not have one directly on our keyboard. Degree symbol can be used in case if we're dealing with angles, or when we need to operate with temperature and use Celsius degree. It is also a common coordinate degree sign. Actually, there are a few ways to make a degree symbol. You can either copy paste, or use the degree code in your document. See some examples below:

## Degree Symbol on Mac OS

Press and hold the SHIFTOPTION8 keys on your keyboard.

Degree symbol on GNU/Linux (X desktop):

• AltGr-Shift-0

• Compose ‘o’ ‘o’

Compose is usually Shift-AltGr. The order in which those keys are pressed is important.

In the obtuse angle one 90° should be 180° :)

This post contains next to nil on information. All it contains is HOW to obtain the degrees symbol, without explaining the WHY of the degrees symbol. For those, like me, who were ENDLESSLY DISAPPOINTED with the lack of information in the website, here is the history, finally printed, of the degrees symbol.

The first known recorded modern use of the degree symbol in mathematics is from 1657 where the usage seems to show that the symbol is a small raised zero, to match the prime symbol notation of sexagesimal subdivisions of degree such as minute ( ′ ), second ( ″ ), and third ( ‴ ), which originate as small raised Roman numerals.

How easy that paragraph was to read! How simple, five minutes, to research the fine history of the degrees symbol! But no!! Crass, lazy, shoddy work is all society is good for in this modern day and age. This website is living proof of that: for they are too lazy to give the degrees symbol the respect it deserves.

This is a great tool! It helped me out quite a bit with my final lab report!

I love you 2019-05-12 23:43:54

^ very much.

awesome 2019-05-12 14:14:16

Chromebook helper 2019-04-03 05:26:47

To do this on a Chromebook/Chrome Cook/ChromeOS:
1. Press and hold "ctrl" + "shift" + "u"
2. Let go
3. Type "b0"
4. Click "enter"
Notes:
All this without quotations.
Also all unicode characters can be typed this way on a Chromebook! Just replace the "b0" with: https://unicode-table.com/en/
You can also find codes by Googling!

Thanks for making this website. If you didn't, some scam site would probably be in its place.
I can't believe it has comments though. Why???
