What would the world be without coordinate plane?

Without a coordinate plane, it would be challenging to accurately plot and locate points on a graph, navigate using maps and GPS systems, and understand mathematical relationships and equations using graphical representations. The coordinate plane provides a fundamental framework for spatial understanding and mathematical analysis, making it indispensable in various fields such as science, engineering, and design.


What is themeaning of latitude?

Latitude is the angular distance north or south from the earth's equator measured in degrees.You can see this definition in any dictionary. Latitude refers to location. We commonly refer to places on the earth in terms of it's position of longitude and latitude (by degrees, minutes and seconds). If you look at a map of the earth, you will notice a gridwork of verticle and horizontal lines that separate the globe up into little squares. The lines that are going up and down (or vertically) are lines of longitude. The lines that go sideways (horizontally) are lines of latitude; they wrap around the earth latteraly, or sideways, like when a quarterback tosses the ball to another player sideways on the field, they call that a latteral pass. Nowdays, locations by latitude and longitude are becoming ever so much more common because of the invetion of GPS devices. (Global Positioning Systems) Alot of new cars have them built right into the dash, or you can see some that are stuck to the inside of the windshield by suction cups. GPS units can use locations entered into them in the formats used from latitude and longitude. Here is a web site where you can calculate the latitude and logitude of the house that you live in. Try it for fun, but write down the number; if someone needs to know how to get to your house, and they have a GPS, that number will get them right to your front door! http://www.satsig.net/maps/lat-long-finder.htm


What Is GPS Tracker?
