The North Pole is at 90 degrees north latitude, and the South Pole is at 90 degrees south latitude. So, distance north or south of the equator is called 'latitude'. One way to remember this is to think of the rungs of a ladder. "Ladder"-- "Lati-" you step up or down the 'rungs of ladder-tude'.
It is both north and south of the equator.

Equator. The Latitude of a place is measured in degrees north or south of the Equator.
What unit of longitude and latitude measerment
Latitude is the angular distance north or south of the equator. Longitude is the angular distance east or west of the equator.
Lines of latitude run from east to west and measure the degrees north or south of the equator.
True. Latitude measures the distance north or south of the Equator, expressed in degrees. The Equator is designated as 0 degrees latitude, with lines of latitude extending north to 90 degrees N and south to 90 degrees S.

Latitude measures the distance from the Equator (both north and south). So, latitude is horizontal, lonitude is vertical.
The distance north and south of the equator is measured in degrees of latitude. The equator is designated as 0° latitude, with measurements increasing to 90° north and 90° south.
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.
