Best Answer

Latitude is an angle on the Earth's surface, measured north or south

from the equator to the location of interest.

Longitude is an angle on the Earth's surface, measured east or west

from the Prime Meridian to the location of interest.

Any location on Earth can be described precisely, by just these two angles.
