If scientists knew the latitude of a location on Earth and surface but not the longitude what could they determine about the location?
How far north or south of the equator the location lies.
How can you tell how far a place is from the equator?
The distance from the equator is the angle of latitude. The distance from equator can be measured as magnitude of the latitude.The equator is at zero degrees latitude and a location north of the equator has a positive latitude value from 0 to +90, whereas a location south of the equator has a negative latitude. For example, a one-degree distance from the equator represents a length of ~111 km (or 60 nautical miles).
What do lines of latitude on a map measure?
No, it measures degrees. Longitude can measure time, but not from the equator but from the prime meridian

How do latitudes and longitudes differ?
Latitude indicates how far the location is above or below the equator. Longitude measures how far the location is west or east of the prime meridian (0 degrees), which runs through Greenwich, England
