Latitude is sideto side;Longitude is up and down
you can remember this by when you say the word latitude, your corners of your mouth go from side to side, and longitude, your lips go up and down.
Latitude go side to side and longitude do up and down
Side by side. Longitude is up and down because it is long
Longitude is up and down though it measures east and west. Latitude is side to side even though it measures north and south
they are called lines of LONGITUDE ( the vertical or up and down lines) and LATITUDE (the horizontal or side to side lines)
Latitude lines run parallel to the equator.
Latitude in my mind is fatitude because it goes side to side, and longitude is long so it goes up and down on a map.
Latitude lines go -------- (across) And Longitude goes | | | (up & down)
Horizontal ; Side to side Vertical ; Up and down .
The lines that run up and down on a map are called longitude lines, while the lines that run from side to side are called latitude lines. Longitude lines measure the distance east or west of the Prime Meridian, while latitude lines measure the distance north or south of the Equator. Together, these lines form a grid system that helps in identifying specific locations on the Earth's surface.
The direction of latitude is horizontal, while longitude is up and down. Lines of latitude run parallel to the equator.
Vertical is up and down and horizontal is side to side.
It can be either up and down, or side to side.
