Degrees are a unit of measurement of angles and temperature and concentration, and some other things. As a unit for measuring angles, meridians are measured in degrees. There are 360 degrees in a complete circle.

What degrees of two meridians which can form a great circle?
Two meridians can form a great circle when they are 180 degrees apart, as they represent opposite points on the Earth's surface. For example, the Prime Meridian at 0 degrees and the Antimeridian at 180 degrees are such meridians. Any two meridians that are 180 degrees apart will create a great circle, which is the largest circle that can be drawn on the surface of a sphere.
