Every user is periodically faced with the need to put a degree in Word. When writing a report or preparing a term paper, you often have to rely on mathematical formulas and make the appropriate calculations. In this case, the MS Word editor provides several ways to put down the degree.
Instructions
Step 1
If you use a lot of mathematical formulas in your document where degrees are applied, use a special MS Word application called Microsoft Equation. It is a formula editor that allows you to compose expressions of varying complexity. You can start it by choosing the "Object" command from the "Insert" menu. In the window that appears, specify Microsoft Equation and click OK. You will see a field for entering an expression and a floating Formula panel. To put a degree in Word, enter the function and select the grouping of commands "Templates of upper and lower case" on the panel. The degree corresponds to the "Superscript" option. After selecting it, enter the required degree value in the corresponding field.
Step 2
However, if your document consists mainly of text and it is illogical to use formulas, take the opportunity to put the degree in the Word through special characters. To do this, select "Symbol …" from the "Insert" menu. You will see a new window with a bunch of different symbols. In the main field, select the desired symbol - the number of degrees - and click the "Insert" button. Similar to the text. However, you may notice that power symbols do not contain all possible numbers.
Step 3
Therefore, to put the degree in the Word, corresponding to any possible number, use the following procedure. Enter an expression containing a degree in plain text format. Highlight the degree with the mouse cursor. Go to the "Format" - "Font …" menu. In the window that appears, in the "Modifications" box, check the box next to the "Superscript" option and click OK. The highlighted expression will become, as it were, elevated, corresponding to the visual display of the mathematical degree.
