That's going to depend on how far you are north or south of the equator.

The distance between any two meridians of longitude is maximum along the

equator, and it shrinks to zero at the poles, where all meridians of longitude

converge (come together).

One degree of longitude represents about 111.2 km (69.1 miles) on the equator.

Anywhere else on earth, it would be 111.2 multiplied by the cosine of your latitude.

When you are at one of the poles on earth how many miles is each degree?

-- Each degree of latitude, anywhere on Earth, is about 69 miles in a north or south direction. -- Each degree of longitude covers a different distance, depending on the latitude. At the poles, any number of degrees of longitude cover zero distance.


How many miles are in degree?

One degree of latitude, and one degree of longitude along the equator only, is equivalent to roughly 69.1 miles (111 km). One degree of latitude, and of longitude on the equator only, is also equal to about 60 nautical miles.


How many miles in a degree of latitude at 46.5 latitude and 80.9 longitude?

At 46.5° latitude, one degree of latitude is approximately 68.71 miles. The distance in miles covered by one degree of longitude varies based on the latitude, and 80.9° longitude does not affect this latitude calculation.


How many miles are in one degree?

One degree of latitude, and one degree of longitude along the equator only, is equivalent to roughly 69.1 miles (111 km). One degree of latitude, and of longitude on the equator only, is also equal to about 60 nautical miles.


How many statue miles are there on a degree of longitude at the poles?

Roughly 69 miles, it varies a little because of the earth's shape.


How many miles are in 32 degrees of longitude?

At the equator (25000 miles) there's about 69.4 miles per degree, so about 2222.2 miles. At the poles there would be no miles. In nautical miles it's 60 miles per degree (of latitude, which stays the same).


One degree longitude is equal to how many miles?

60 60 60


How many miles does 1 degree of latidude equal at 64 degrees west longitude?

Latitudes are evenly spaced regardless of the longitude. One degree of latitude corresponds to 60 nautical miles on the surface, or about 69.1 regular miles.


How many miles is in 1 degree?

Degrees of longitude are uniform in length. 1 degree (Longitude) = 69.69 miles*Cos(Ө)(latitude) however the length of a degree of latitude depends on were you are on the planet. A degree of latitude at the equator is notable longer than, for example, a degree of latitude at the latitude of Toronto, Canada.


How many miles does 1 degree of longitude equal at 23 degrees north latitude?

63.55


How many miles does 1 degree of longitude equal at 37 degrees north latitude?

At 37 degrees north latitude, 1 degree of longitude is approximately 53 miles. The distance varies depending on the latitude due to the Earth's curvature.
