Yes. The equator is defined as the 'zero' of latitude. For every latitude number, there's
one of them north of the equator and another one with the same number south of the
equator. In order to be clear about which one you mean, you have to mention the label
'north' or 'south' along with the number.
What else can I help you with?
Which circle of latitude is described as being equidistant from both the north and south poles?
The equator.
What line of latitude is 90 degrees north or the equator?
90 degrees north latitude is the north pole. The equator is zero latitude.
What is the location on earth relative to equator?
The location of a place on Earth is described by its latitude and longitude coordinates. Latitude measures how far north or south a location is from the Equator, which is 0 degrees latitude. The Equator is an imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere.
What is the reference line when determining the latitude?
The equator is zero latitude.
The Latitude of a place is expressed by its angular distance in relation to the?
Equator. The Latitude of a place is measured in degrees north or south of the Equator.
What does latitude measure on the equator?
Latitude is the angular distance north or south of the equator. Longitude is the angular distance east or west of the equator.
Above the equator the higher the number of latitude the farther you are?
Yes, that's correct. The latitude lines are measured in degrees, with the equator being at 0 degrees latitude. As you move north of the equator, the latitude values increase, indicating that you are moving farther away from the equator towards the North Pole.
The parallel of latitude that is north of the equator?
There are 2 major lines of latitude located north of the equator. The Tropic of Cancer is located at 23.5 degrees north latitude while the Arctic Circle is located at 66.5 degrees north latitude.
What is distance north or south of the earth's equator?
Latitude. 2nd answer: Latitude is the wrong answer. Distance is measured in miles, feet, yards, meters, kilometers, and so forth. Latitude is a measurement of degrees, not distance.
Is the distance north and south of the equator it is noted by?
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.
What lines measure the distance north and south of the equator?
Lines of latitude. Longitude is from Pole to Pole.
Is the equator 180 degrees latitude?
The equator is zero latitude. 90° north latitude is the north pole. 90° south latitude is the south pole. There is no latitude greater than 90° degrees north or south on Earth.
