Distance from the Equator is measured in Latitude .
'Distance' can't be measured in degrees.The angle from the equator to the place of interestis the latitude of the place.
The distance north or south of the equator is measured in degrees of latitude. For example, the equator is measured at 0 degrees; Sydney Australia lies 33.51 degrees south of the equator; Helsinki Finland lies 60 degrees north of the equator.
Latitude.
That is measured by lattitude.
The answer is latitude.

yes longitude is measured from side to side on earth
It is "A distance north or south of the equator, measured in degrees".But distance is not measured in degrees. The latitude of a place is theangle corresponding to the shortest arc on the Earth's surface betweenthe equator and that place.
Declination (positive and negative respectively) is the angular distance between north and south of the Celestial Equator.
The earth is slightly wider than it is tall, so the measurement around the equator is going to be a just over a hundred miles greater than the distance around the earth.
