What is the longitude and latitude of Taurus?

The system of latitude/longitude only applies to locations on Earth's surface. Objects in the sky can be seen over a wide range of latitudes, and they rotate over every longitude in the course of a day. Taurus is defined as a region of the celestial map that covers the range of declination between roughly -2 degrees and +31 degrees. So at least a part of it is visible from any latitude on Earth, and ALL of it is visible from anywhere north of about 60 degrees South latitude ... every continent except Antarctica.


What is the latitude and longitude of the constellation Sagittarius?

A star's position is measured in Right Ascension (Ra) and Declination (Dec), which is stated in very small incriments such as arc seconds. Constellations cover too much area and have broader designations. Leo is located at 11 hours Ra and 15 degrees Dec., while the brightest star in it, Regulus is located at 10hours, 08 minutes, 22.3 seconds Ra, and 11 degrees, 58 arcminutes, 02 arcseconds. An arcsecond is 1/3600th of a degreee....pretty small. Here is a bit more on the subject. http://liftoff.msfc.nasa.gov/academy/universe/RADEC.HTML
