What are units of latitude or longitude that are equal to 1/360 of the globe called?

The correct response is degrees because latitude and longitude are measured in degrees, which represent divisions of a circle. The globe is divided into 360 degrees, with each degree signifying one part of that total circumference. This makes degrees the fundamental unit for these measurements, allowing for the precise location of points on the Earth's surface.

Minutes and seconds are smaller subdivisions of degrees. Specifically, each degree is divided into 60 minutes, and each minute is further divided into 60 seconds. Radians, on the other hand, are a different unit of measurement entirely, primarily used in mathematics to measure angles based on the radius of a circle rather than the specific divisions of latitude and longitude on the globe.
