Are 15 degrees latitude and 75 degrees longitude locations in the continent of Asia or Europe?

Answer 1

Those coordinates are in India, all of which is in Asia.

Answer 2

"15 degrees north" is the description of a circle all the way around the Earth that

crosses parts of the Atlantic Ocean, Africa, Yemen, the Arabian Sea, India, the Bay

of Bengal, Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, the South China Sea, the Philippines,

the Pacific Ocean, Central America, and the Caribbean Sea.

"75 degrees east" is the description of a semi-circle more than 12,000 miles long

between the north and south poles that crosses parts of the Arctic Ocean, Russia,

Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, China, Pakistan, India, the Indian Ocean, and Antarctica.

The point where those two lines cross ... the point on Earth with the coordinates

15° north latitude / 75° east longitude ... is located in southwestern India, about

150 miles north of Mangalore and 310 miles south-southeast of the center of Mumbai.

Answer 3

Latitude needs 'north' or 'south', and longitude needs 'east' or 'west'. Without that information

and with numbers only, there are four different points that you could be talking about. Fortunately,

this is not a distress call to the Coast Guard to come out and rescue you.

Here is where the point you're describing could be:

15° north latitude, 75° east longitude: In western India, about 225 miles northwest of Bangalore,

on the Asian continent.

15° north latitude, 75° west longitude: In the Caribbean Sea, about 240 miles southeast of

Kingston, Jamaica.

15° south latitude, 75° east longitude: In the Indian ocean, about 1,200 miles east-northeast of

Port Louis, Mauritius.

15° south latitude, 75° west longitude: Near the coast of Peru, about 240 miles southeast of Lima,

on the South American continent.

Answer 4

When you specify one latitude and one longitude, you've described one location.

15°N/75°E is a point in southwestern India, about 85 miles southeast of Panaji,

and 223 miles northwest of the center of Bangalore.

Answer 5

That location is in Asia. To be specific, it is near the southern tip of India. It is near the western coast, as well.
