It's like an X and Y axis; Longitude goes up and down, like the Y axis, and Latitude goes around the earth, like an X axis. You may want to find a picture to further see this.

What longitudes and latitudes is Afghanistan between?
to the nearest minute between longitudes 60e31 & 74e53 & between latitudes 29n22 & 38n29
Why is the distance between two latitudes constant at 111 kilometers but not for longitudes?
The distance between two latitudes is relatively constant at 111 kilometers because the lines of latitude are parallel to each other and evenly spaced. Whereas, the distance between two longitudes varies because the lines of longitude converge at the poles, resulting in shorter distances towards the poles and longer distances towards the equator.
How is knowledge of longitudes and latitudes is important for people?
The knowledge of latitude and longitude is important for people because it helps them to understand and locates the geographical location and globe better. The use of latitudes and longitudes offer a better and quick grasp of geographical facts.It determines the time zones of the different regions of the world. With the help of longitudes and latitudes, it is easy to calculate local time and standard time. Longitudes and latitudes also help in calculating the distance from one place to another.
Why are latitudes concentric but longitudes meet at the poles?
Latitudes are parallel to the equator. Longitudes converge like elastics on a soccer ball.
Why are longitudes parallel?
They aren't, latitudes are.
Who created the latitudes and the longitudes?
ptolemy

What is the country in 90 to 45?
I tried. Believe me, I tried. But I finally had to give up trying to figure out whether 90 and 45 are latitudes or longitudes, and if they're latitudes, whether they're north or south latitudes, and if they're longitudes, whether they're east or west longitudes.
