What does ° mean?

Le symbole degré est employé en typographie pour exprimer des mesures de température telles que le degré Celsius (°C) ou le degré Fahrenheit (°F), ainsi que pour chiffrer les angles géométriques et les coordonnées de latitude et longitude en géodésie. Dans la navigation maritime et aérienne, il se combine aux minutes et secondes d'arc.

En typographie française soignée, le symbole degré s'accole directement au nombre pour les angles (comme 45°), mais prend une espace insécable lorsqu'il précède l'unité de température (°C). À ne pas confondre avec l'indicateur ordinal masculin (º). Consultez aussi notre tableau des codes Alt, le symbole plus ou moins et les symboles mathématiques.
