Lines of latitude must be used with lines of longitude to help us find the absolute location. Lines of latitude alone cannot determine absolute location.

How can lines of longitude and latitude help find the absolute location?

Lines of longitude and latitude provide a coordinate system that allows you to pinpoint a specific location on Earth. Longitude lines run north-south and measure east or west of the Prime Meridian, while latitude lines run east-west and measure north or south of the Equator. By using the intersection of these lines, you can determine the absolute location of a place on the Earth's surface.


How do you use lines of latitude and lines of longitude to find an absolute location on a map?

Lines of latitude indicate a location's distance north or south of the Equator, while lines of longitude show its distance east or west of the Prime Meridian. By identifying the intersection of specific latitude and longitude lines, you can pinpoint an absolute location on a map. The coordinates (latitude and longitude) provide a precise geographical reference for any point on Earth.


Does lines of meridian help us determine absolute location?

Yes, lines of longitude (meridians) help determine absolute location on Earth by providing a reference point based on the Prime Meridian (0°) and the International Date Line (180°). Longitude lines run north-south and intersect with latitude lines to pinpoint exact locations using degrees of latitude and longitude.

What if globes had only latitude lines or only longitude lines?

If globes only had latitude lines, it would be difficult to determine a location's east-west position. If globes only had longitude lines, it would be challenging to determine a location's north-south position. Both latitude and longitude lines are necessary for accurately pinpointing a location on the Earth's surface.


Do lines Latitude determine our season?

It's not the latitude that determines your season. Your location on Earth does that, and latitude (along with longitude) is an excellent way to accurately describe your location on Earth if anyone asks.
