Default Degree calcuation

Why bother converting to radians and back again?
=13+15/60+12+55/60 gives the same as your =DEGREES(RADIANS(13 +
15/60)+RADIANS(12 + 55/60))

Otherwise if you have 13:15 in one cell and 12:55 in another, just add them
and format the result as [h]:mm to get 26:10 or as [h]""mm"'" to get
2610'

I came up with this for your example
=DEGREES(RADIANS(13 + 15/60)+RADIANS(12 + 55/60))
that will return 26.16667

Hope this gets you headed in the direction you want to go.
