If you were at 65 degrees north latitude and 150 degrees west longitude, you would be in Alaska, specifically in the vicinity of the interior region of the state. This area is characterized by its vast wilderness, including parts of the Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve. The climate is cold, with long winters and short summers, typical of subarctic regions.

If you were lost at sea and needed to know your latitude where on earth would you not be able to tell?

You can always find your latitude and longitude by getting a 3-star celestial fix; as long as you have a sextant and an accurate timepiece.If you are looking for a one-star observation to determine your latitude, then you would need to be able to see Polaris, the north star. Polaris cannot be observed anywhere south of about 3 degrees north latitude. (Polaris is not EXACTLY above the North Pole, so in order to get an accurate reading of your longitude, you would still need a nautical almanac and a watch.)But with a watch, a sextant and a nautical almanac, you could do a "local apparent noon" observation of the Sun, and determine both your latitude and longitude quite precisely from one sighting.


Distance north or south on a map can be measured by which of these?

Latitude measures North or South of the Equator in degrees. 0° is the Equator, and 90° N (or +90°) is the North Pole, and 90° S (or -90°) is the South Pole. Each degree of latitude is about 69 miles (or 60 Nautical Miles). Longitude lines (which run north and south, but measure east/west) get closer together as you approach either pole.


Where would you end up if you followed a compass needle to the north?

What is the latitude and longitude for 46 degree north latitude from the prime meridian if you move to 21 degree south 35 degree west 20 degree south 45 degree west and 20 degree north?

The latitude and longitude for 46 degrees North latitude from the Prime Meridian are approximately 46 degrees North latitude, 0 degrees longitude. Moving to 21 degrees South, 35 degrees West would take you to approximately 21 degrees South latitude, 35 degrees West longitude. Continuing to 20 degrees South, 45 degrees West would position you at approximately 20 degrees South latitude, 45 degrees West longitude. Finally, moving to 20 degrees North would bring you around 20 degrees North latitude, along the same longitude as the previous location (45 degrees West).

What is the longitude and latitude in minutes and seconds of Trenton NJ?

The point on the tip of the dome of the New Jersey State House in Trenton is located at 2,413 minutes 13.87 seconds north latitude 4,486 minutes 11.81 seconds west longitude. If I could use degrees too, the numbers would be easier to handle: 40° 13' 13.87" north latitude 74° 46' 11.81" west longitude. Note: These are the latitude/longitude coordinates of the State House dome only. Other spots around town have somewhat different numbers. In fact, so do other spots around the State House building.
