Why are latitudes concentric but longitudes meet at the poles?
Latitudes are parallel to the equator. Longitudes converge like elastics on a soccer ball.
What is the country in 90 to 45?
I tried. Believe me, I tried. But I finally had to give up trying to figure out whether 90 and 45 are latitudes or longitudes, and if they're latitudes, whether they're north or south latitudes, and if they're longitudes, whether they're east or west longitudes.
What is the importance of latitudes and longitudes?
It tells people where they are in the world.
What is the network of latitudes and longitudes?
The network of latitudes and longitudes refers to a system of geographical coordinates that are used to pinpoint locations on the Earth's surface. Latitudes are horizontal lines that measure the distance north or south of the equator, whereas longitudes are vertical lines that measure the distance east or west of the prime meridian. Together, these coordinates provide a precise way to identify any place on the planet.
Why do we the system of latitudes and longitudes?
to know the exact location of a country or a place
What is imaginary lines called?
On the earth (and planetary/stellar bodies) they are called latitudes and longitudes.
Who used math to determine longitudes and latitudes of the earth?
The concept of using math to determine longitudes and latitudes of the Earth was developed by ancient Greek mathematicians such as Eratosthenes and Hipparchus. However, it was not until the 18th century that accurate methods were developed by astronomers and mathematicians, such as John Harrison and Leonhard Euler, to accurately calculate longitudes and latitudes.
