Lines of latitude are found in both the North and the South Hemispheres.
You find the lines of latitude and longitude and find the place that they intersect, which is your location.
Latitude: N 25° 45' 42.048" / Longitude: W 80° 11' 30.444"
Lines of latitude must be used with lines of longitude to help us find the absolute location. Lines of latitude alone cannot determine absolute location.
Greece is in the northern hemisphere. The northern hemisphere is north of the equator. The southern hemisphere is south of the equator. You can find this out on a map and/or with latitude or longitude.
Not all maps show latitude and longitude. On those that do some have horizontal lines indicating where lines of latitude lie, and on the right and left margins of the map these lines will have the latitude they represent marked. Then on some maps the lines are missing but the notations in the margin show where the lined of latitude should be.
You have to look at the globe or map and see that it is divided into Northern Hemisphere and the Southern, then East and west. Look at the lines and what are you going to measure ask your self if it is east to west or north to south. find the lines of latitude that measures it and remember to do latitude then longitude first if it is not matching up exactly just make something accurate line say if the line is 30 and it's in 35 write 35 :) Hope that helped
Polaris can be used to determine latitude in the northern hemisphere as it is directly overhead from the north geographic pole. The sun can be used for the same purpose if proper tables are available.
The lines are what determines the absolute location of a place on the map.
Longitude: 0° 0' 0"Latitude: 47° 37' 13"
You can find Antarctica south of 60 degrees S.
Lines of latitude and longitude help us locate places on maps and globes. Latitude lines run horizontally and measure the distance north or south of the equator, while longitude lines run vertically and measure the distance east or west of the prime meridian. By using these lines, we can pinpoint the exact coordinates of any location on Earth.
