From largest to smallest, the labels are:
- Degrees (°)
- Minutes (')
- Seconds (")
The numbers are always followed by a hemispheric notation, either N for Northern or S for Southern (longitude) and E for Eastern or W for Western Hemisphere (latitude).

intersection of a latitude and a longitude, so there are an infinite number
of such places.

How do you use longitude and latitude to find a location?
You find the lines of latitude and longitude and find the place that they intersect, which is your location.
How many lines of longitude does one line of latitude intersect?
Every line of constant latitude intersects every possible longitude, and vice-versa.
When lines of longitide and latitude intersect they form?
A meridian of longitude and a parallel of latitude are perpendicular at their intersection, forming a right angle.
Are latitude lines called meridian?
Each 'meridian' is a line of constant longitude.
What are the lines on the globe called?
The key lines are latitude and longitude. These are based on specific points. The equator is the latitude around the center of the earth. Longitude is measured from the Prime Meridian, which goes through the Greenwich Observatory in England.The Tropics and the Arctic/Antarctic Circle are also key.
