set options-preferences-working units- angle units to surveyor units.

at the data entry use d (the letter d) for degrees, ' for minutes, " for seconds.

I am unsure what you are asking but if you go to project preferences
-> dimensions->angular dimensions->unit and select surveyor's units,
this may be what you are looking for.

To get the degree symbol hold down Alt and type 0176 on the number pad.

at entering an angle numerically, you can use the 'd' for separating the degrees and the minutes in the surveyor's unit entry mode.

in a text block you should use "insert symbol" and copy paste the degree symbol in the given font's table
