longitude and lattitude.
longitude measures north and south of the prime merridian
lattitude measures east and west of the equator
Lines of latitude and longitude are used to form a grid encompassing the globe so that any position can be identified and located. Latitude is used to measure distance north and south of the equator, while longitude is used to measure distance east and west of the prime meridian.
Latitude is the measurement used to determine the distance of a place from the equator. It is expressed in degrees north or south of the equator, ranging from 0° at the equator to 90° at the poles.
Latitude is the angular distance north or south of the equator. Longitude is the angular distance east or west of the equator.
lines of latitude
Declination measures the number of degrees north or south of the Celestial Equator.
latitude
Lines of latitude and longitude are used to form a grid encompassing the globe so that any position can be identified and located. Latitude is used to measure distance north and south of the equator, while longitude is used to measure distance east and west of the prime meridian.
It is called latitude.
To measure the distance on the Earth's surface North or South of the Equator.
Latitude is the measurement used to determine the distance of a place from the equator. It is expressed in degrees north or south of the equator, ranging from 0° at the equator to 90° at the poles.
latitude
Latitude. It is the angular distance measured in degrees north or south of the equator.
Latitude is the angular distance north or south of the equator. Longitude is the angular distance east or west of the equator.
Latitude
The lines used to measure distances north and south of the equator are latitude lines. They include the equator (0 degrees latitude) and equidistant circles between the equator and the poles. Latitude lines represent the surface points having the same angle from the equator, and planes perpendicular to the Earth's north-south axis.
Lines of Latitude.
Angular distance eastward along the equator.
