If you take a ruler and make one measurement up from the floor and one
measurement from the corner of the room, you can come up with two numbers
that exactly describe the location of any point on the entire wall.
If you do exactly the same thing on the globe, you can come up with two numbers
that exactly describe the location of any point on the entire Earth. You just have to
know where each measurement starts from. And the rulers are printed right there
on the globe for you.

Latitude and longitude are angles used to describe the location of any point on Earth. They are the 'address' of the point.

Lines of latitude and longitude help us locate places on maps and globes. Latitude lines run horizontally and measure the distance north or south of the equator, while longitude lines run vertically and measure the distance east or west of the prime meridian. By using these lines, we can pinpoint the exact coordinates of any location on Earth.
Longitude and latitude are coordinates that help us pinpoint exact locations on a map. Longitude measures east-west position, while latitude measures north-south position. By using these coordinates, we can accurately locate places on a map, making it easier to find specific locations, like in a treasure hunt.
