They are used to locate a certain place on a map.
To locate any spot on the Earth's surface.
The system of latitudes and longitudes is a method used to locate points on the Earth's surface. There is a similar coordinate system used to locate objects in the sky, but it's not latitude/longitude.
By Longitude, Latitude, minutes, seconds. Or use Google Earth.
longitude and latitude
What is the difference between longitude and latitude? Given it's longitude and latitude, can you locate the area?
The lines of latitude provide vertical (north-south) coordinates on a map or globe. Lines of longitude provide horizontal (east-west) coordinates. The defined geographical point is where the latitude line intersects the longitude line.

to locate and find the place
"Longitude" and "latitude" are the coordinates used primarily in the system of locating points on the earth's surface. Even when that generalization doesn't hold, they're only applicable to the location of points on the surface of another sphere. There's no way to use that kind of system to locate a planet.
Geography is the study of the Earth's surface features and processes. In geography, it is important to locate these features on the surface of the planet. To do this you have to have some sort of coordinate system. Latitude and longitude are this system they enable maps of earth to be made and for airplanes and ships to get to places on the planet.
