Latitude and longitude came first. A very long time before such things as satellites, computers and smart phones ever existed.
-- The center of the State Capitol dome on NE 23rd St is located at 35.4922° north latitude 97.5032° west longitude. -- My first two children were born in the hospital located at 35.5295° north latitude 97.5766° west longitude, and came home to 35.5185° north latitude 97.5245° west longitude.
latitude is straight and longitude is long.
i really dont know thats why i came here..........
I'm going to assume that you're asking about 'Oklahoma'. -- The state occupies all latitudes between 33.62° and 36.5° North. -- It also occupies all longitudes between 94.43° and 103° West. -- The center of Boise City is located at about 36.73° north latitude 102.51° west longitude. -- The center of Oklahoma City is located at about 35.47° north latitude 97.52° west longitude. -- The center of Broken Bow is located at about 34.03° north latitude 94.74° west longitude. -- The center of the State Capitol dome on NE 23rd St in Oklahoma City is located at 35.4922° north latitude 97.5032° west longitude. -- My first two children were born in the hospital located at 35.5295° north latitude 97.5766° west longitude, and came home to 35.5185° north latitude 97.5245° west longitude.
No, longitude and latitude were developed by the ancient Greeks around 150 BC but the specific mathematician who came up with them is unknown. Hipparchus is often credited with improving and popularizing the system.

For starters they are both on the map and both help you find a place faster. They also helped when it came to navigating no matter if it was 100 years ago and they were crossing the sea of today. (A GPS uses them to)
The difference between them is that:Lines of latitude are horizontal lines that extend from East to West along the globe while Longitude is vertical line which runs from North to the South pole.A latitude is the part of a set of global coordinates that indicates the number of degrees from the equator toward one of the poles, and a longitude is the other part of the coordinates which indicates the number of degrees from the prime meridian along a line of latitude. Latitudes are represented on many maps by lines going from east to west, and longitudes are represented as lines from north to south.The mnemonic device I came up with to remember the difference is latitudes are the lines on the map that lay flat(horizontal), and longitudes are the lines that are equally long (each one extends from pole to pole).Latitude tells how far a point is north or south of the equator.Longitude tells you how far a point is east or west of the Prime Meridian.With those two numbers, you can pin down the location of any point on earthwithin a few inches.
Latitude is based on the equator. Longitude i sbased on Greenwich, England. The English came up with the idea, so they got to choose to reference point. ===================================== This system of locating points on the Earth's surface that we're discussing is a direct application of "spherical coordinates", familiar to anyone who has gone past high-school- junior-year math. In the mathematics of spherical coordinates, the position of a point is specified by three numbers: the radial distance of that point from a fixed origin, its polar angle measured from a fixed zenith direction, and the azimuth angle of its orthogonal projection on a reference plane that passes through the origin and is orthogonal to the zenith, measured from a fixed reference direction on that plane. We take that system of coordinates, place its origin at the Earth's center, set the fixed zenith direction to be the direction from the origin toward the Earth's north pole, use the Earth's radius for the radial distance of all points so that we never have to specify it, and locate any point using the two angles of its spherical coordinates.
The Dell Latitude E6320 came out in December of 2011.
it came out in 1687
meridians are also called longitude because they are the same word and they have the same meaning they just came up with another word for longitude
Some GPS devices allow you to enter the lat/lon coordinates of the place you want to go to, and some don't. Different GPS devices have different procedures for entering those numbers. If your device is able to take coordinates as input, the procedure is clearly described in the operation manual that came with it when you bought it.
