Latitude and longitude are measured in degrees, with latitude ranging from 0° at the equator to 90° at the poles, and longitude ranging from 0° to 180° east or west from the Prime Meridian (0°). These degrees are then further divided into minutes and seconds for more precise locations.
Latitude and longitude are angles, so any unit of angle measurement works fine.
That could include radians, grads, etc. By tradition, though, degrees are most
commonly used.
