What Korean cities compare to the latitude and longitude of Seattle Washington?

They can all be 'compared', but none coincide.
The latitude at the center of downtown Seattle is about 47.61 North, whereas
the latitude at the most northerly spot along Korea's northern border with China
is about 43.0 N ... south of Seattle by about 4.61 degrees, or 510 km (320 miles).
That most northerly spot in Korea is roughly parallel to Medford OR, Sioux Falls SD,
Madison and Milwaukee WI, Grand Rapids and Flint MI, London ON, Syracuse and
Buffalo NY, Manchester NH, Lugo and Pamplona in Spain, Perugia in Italy, Sofia in
Bulgaria, Bishkek in Kyrgyzstan, and Alma-Ata in Kazakhstan.

How do latitude and longitude compare on Earth and Moon?
The Moon also has an axis of rotation. So its equator can be defined, which means that latitude is indicated in degrees of latitude north or south of that equator. This relates to the Earth.
What US cities compare latitude and Longitude of Sochi Russia?

What is the time difference between Toronto and Washington?
There is no time difference between Toronto and Washington, DC. They are both in the Eastern time zone.If you meant to compare to Washington State: Seattle, Washington (for example) is in the Pacific time zone, and 3 hours earlier.Thus, my current time in the Eastern US (including DC and Toronto) is 9:40 AM. The current time in Seattle is 6:40 AM.
Can the distance between two points be found if longitude and latitude are known for both points?
according to that data you mark both places and draw a straigh line, then measure the line and compare it to the distances given in the map legend.
How does the climate of seattle compare with the climate of Spokane?
Hot and Dry
How does near to water effect the climate?
Since the ocean absorbs energy from the sun, areas around an ocean are warmer than areas that are at the same latitude, but farther away from an ocean. Compare Seattle and Milwaukee. Seattle climate is warmer and doesn't get much snow in the winter. Milwaukee's climate gets below zero during winter and has snow from late November to March.
How do distance in miles and distance in latitude and longitude units compare?
They're not comparable at all. Distance ... like what you measure when you walk, drive,or swim ... is described in units of length, such as feet, meters, or miles. Latitude andlongitude don't have any units at all, because they're angles.The distance between the north and south poles is about 12,400 miles, and it's describedin terms of 180 degrees of latitude on the curved surface of the globe. So 1 degree of latitude ...travel toward the north or south... corresponds to about 69 miles.Longitude can't even be described that simply. The angle all the way around the Earth is360 degrees of longitude, and 1 degree of longitude also corresponds to about 69 miles ofdistance, but that's only at the equator, In the case of longitude, they ALL meet at the northand south poles, so the farther you are from the equator, the less miles cover 1 degree oflongitude. At the poles, it's zero miles per degree.
Why are lines of longitude measured east to west?
The answer is much simpler if we don't get hung up on the "lines". -- The longitude of a place is an angle measured east or west of the zero-reference longitude. -- The latitude of a place is an angle measured north or south of the zero-reference latitude. -- All of the points on Earth that have the same one single longitude blend together to form a line that connects the Earth's north and south poles. -- All of the points on Earth that have the same one single latitude blend together to form a line that circles the Earth east and west. (Compare: -- All of the points on the wall that have the same vertical distance from the floor blend together to form a horizontal line. -- All of the points on the wall that have the same horizontal distance from the corner blend together to form a vertical line. Why is this so hard to understand and discuss ?)

Compare George Washington to a contemporary?
George Washington believed in personal freedom and limited government power.
Will a shadow be longer a 60 degrees latitude or 10 degree latitude?
If you compare shadows at the same time of day, the one at 60° latitude,either north or south, will always be longer than the one at 10° latitude,either north or south.
