What is the latitude and longitude for the point A on the map?

Answer 1

Without seeing the map, this question is impossible to answer. But think of a map as a graph, the latitude relates to the X-Axis while the Longitude is analagous to the Y-Axis, so the Latitude will be what the X-Value would be and the Longitude would be the Y-Value.

Answer 2

Not all maps show latitude and longitude. On those that do some have horizontal lines indicating where lines of latitude lie, and on the right and left margins of the map these lines will have the latitude they represent marked. Then on some maps the lines are missing but the notations in the margin show where the lined of latitude should be.

Answer 3

Longitude and latitude are geographic coordinates on a map. Latitude runs horizontally across the map, while longitude runs vertical across your map. To find a center point you would combine the two together.

Answer 4

The latitude of a place is the angle, starting at the equator and ending at

the place, measured northward or southward along the Earth's surface.

If a map represents the place, then the map may also indicate its elevation,

its longitude, its latitude, its distance from some other place, the country of

which it's a part, or any number of other bits of information about that place.

But the latitude of the place is not actually on the map, any more than the

place itself is actually on the map.

Answer 5

The map you happen to be looking at may or may not have any parallels of latitude

printed on it. If it has, then they are most likely east/west straight lines, regardless

of the map's scale. If the map is in the most typical position, with North at the top

or the bottom, then parallels of latitude join the left and right margins.

Answer 6

IF your map has any indication of latitude, then the numbers are printed in the

left and right margins, possibly with light horizontal lines across the map.
