Hi
For the degree sign you can enter a small "o" after the number and then highlight the "o" and then apply the superscript option by right clicking on the highlighted "o" and select Font followed by Superscript.

For other Symbols, in your Word document click on the "Insert" menu and on the right hand side of the toolbar you will see a "Symbol" button, press that and you will see a list of symbols you can use.

Good luck.
