How many miles is it between two parrallels 1 degree apart if the approximate miles from the equator is 6200?
The distance between two parallels (lines of latitude) that are 1 degree apart can be calculated using the approximate circumference of the Earth at the equator, which is about 24,901 miles. Since there are 360 degrees in a circle, the distance between each degree of latitude is approximately 24,901 miles divided by 360, which equals about 69.17 miles. Therefore, the distance between two parallels that are 1 degree apart is approximately 69 miles.

What is the distance between two longitudes at the equator?
At the equator, the circumference of the Earth is 40,075.16 km ( 24,901.55 miles). Divide that into 360 equal pieces to get the distance for each one degree of longitude. A degree of longitude at the equator is equal to 111.32 km.

What degree line does equator run?
The equator represents the zero degree line of latitude.
Does one degree of longitude equal 270 km?
The distance represented by one degree of longitude varies according to distance from the equator. That's because the meridians of longitude are equally distributed around the equator but all converge to a single point at the north and south poles. The greatest distance between any two meridians of longitude, then, is the distance between the points where they cross the equator. Along the equator, one degree of longitude covers about 111.1 kilometers.
What information does the latitude of a location tell you?
