Default Degree, Minutes, Seconds

Does excel accept numbers in degree, minutes, seconds format for angles or
does it only accept degrees and radians? If it does, what is the correct way
to do it and is there a conversion I can use to convert it to just regular
degree format? Thanks.

All of Excel's trig functions work only with radians, not
degrees. If you have degrees, convert them to radians with the
RADIANS function. When working with degrees, minutes, and
seconds, treat them as times.
