I placed a point on a map and I need to get the Latitude and Longitude in DMS (Degrees, Minutes, and Seconds). How do I find that for a point I placed?

Option 1:

Select the point, switch the map's display coordinate system to DMS, get the coordinates from the geometry tab in the attribute pane:

Option 2:

Calculate Geometry Attributes, this will store the coordinates in the feature class. The result is static, if you move the point, the calculated coordinates won't change until you repeat the process.
