How do you use latitude and longitude coordinates to find an absolute location on a map?
First, look on the map to find the line of latitude that the coordinates reference. If the exact line of latitude isn't shown on the map, estimate it by looking at the lines that are available. Then look on the map to find the longitude line that the coordinates reference. Once you have found the two lines, follow them both towards the point where they intersect. That is the location the coordinates reference.
