How to write degrees into angles?

Question

So I have this code.

\draw(A)-- (X)-- (D)
pic["$\epsilon$"] {angle= A--X--D};

And it works perfectly. But I don't know how to display numbers. For example

\draw(A)-- (C)-- (D)
pic["$34$"] {angle= A--C--D};

and I get this

How to fix that? I mean how can I display the number (with degree symbol) like I did epsilon?

Welcome to TeX.SX. Write \draw(A)-- (C)-- (D) pic["$34^\circ$"] {angle= A--C--D}; or similar. Have a look at http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/258306/how-to-insert-degree-celsius-symbol-in-node-text-in-pgfplots-tikz for other variants. — Stefan Pinnow, Dec 04 '16 at 19:42

For show units is very appropriate use siunitx package and its macro \ang{...}:

\draw(A)-- (C)-- (D)
pic["\ang{34}"] {angle= A--C--D};

for nicer placement of angle you should define angle radius, for example:

\draw(A)-- (C)-- (D)
pic[angle radius=7mm,"\ang{34}"] {angle= A--C--D};
