If you draw a circle on a piece of paper then put a vertical and horizontal line through it (these lines going though the centre point of the circle), then the horizontal line represents the equator (0 degrees) and the vertical line represents the axis of rotation of the Earth and passes though the N and S poles.
Now if you look at the diagram you will see that at the centre point where the vertical and horizontal lines cross, they meet at a right angle (at 90 degrees). Thus the highest latitude you can get to N or S is 90 degrees from the plane of the equator.
latitudes are basically imaginary circles which round the earth. after the 89th latitude 90th latitude is just a point. nothing exceeds the 90th latitude
The higher the latitude, the shorter the circle is. -- Equator . . . zero latitude, 24,900 miles long. -- North pole / south pole . . . 90 degrees latitude, zero length.
Those two points are literally "poles apart" as the saying goes. 90 North is the north pole. 90 South is the south pole.
The maximum degree of latitude, north or south, are both 90 degrees.
The coordinates given do not exist. Latitude is never greater than 90 degrees, north or south.

90 degrees is. The latitude of the north pole is 90 degrees north, and you can't go any farther north than that. The latitude of the south pole is 90 degrees south, and you can't go any farther south than that.
The higher the latitude, the shorter the circle is. -- Equator . . . zero latitude, 24,900 miles long. -- North pole / south pole . . . 90 degrees latitude, zero length.
The North Pole has a latitude of 90 degrees N, and the South Pole has a latitude of 90 degrees S.
the latitude of the north pole is 90 degrees N,and the latitude of the south pole is 90 degrees S and because each parallel measures one degree north or south of the equator.
It's not possible to locate or identify such a place, because no latitude, whether north or south, is ever greater than 90 degrees.
