equator is the minimum degrees of latitudes
The latitude is approximately 10 degrees North (it can vary a few degrees in certain areas). Latitude is 0-359 degrees (the earth is round after all). I meant longitude for 0-359 degrees.
If you give me accurate and precise numbers for the latitude and longitude of a point on the surface of the earth, I can use those numbers to go to the right place, and stick a pin in the ground within an inch of the exact spot.
The northernmost latitude on earth is 90 degreesnorth, at the north Pole.(The southernmost latitude on earth is 90 degreessouth, at the south Pole.)
Longitude and latitude are measured in terms of degrees, minutes and seconds. Longitude has 360 degrees, while latitude 180 degrees of latitude.
Circumference of the earth at particular latitude can be determined using the formula, Circumference of the earth = 2*PI*r*cos(Φ0) where r = radius of the at particular latitude r = R * (1 - ((1 / 298.25722356) * (0.5 - 0.5 * COS (2 * Φ0)))) R= radius of the earth at equator Φ0= latitude
The latitude is approximately 10 degrees North (it can vary a few degrees in certain areas). Latitude is 0-359 degrees (the earth is round after all). I meant longitude for 0-359 degrees.
Zero degrees latitude is the Equator, which separates the Earth into north and south hemispheres.
No point on Earth could possible be situated at those coordinates, because the highest possible number for latitude is 90 degrees. 90° North latitude is the north pole, and 90° south latitude is the south pole.

Zero latitude is the definition of the earth's equator.
The northernmost latitude on earth is 90 degreesnorth, at the north Pole.(The southernmost latitude on earth is 90 degreessouth, at the south Pole.)
The earth's poles.
It is at 0 degrees latitude and degrees of latitude are measured from it. It also delineates the earth into the northern and southern hemispheres

Earth's Circumference at the Equator: 24,901.55 miles (40,075.16 km) (from about.com); 0 degrees latitude is the equator.
Longitude and latitude are measured in terms of degrees, minutes and seconds. Longitude has 360 degrees, while latitude 180 degrees of latitude.
The northernmost latitude on Earth is 90 degrees north, also known as the North Pole.
