they're used to find places within an area, like a map for example. so the longitude is used to find how far along the horizontal axis the location is and the latitude is used to find out how far along the verticle axis the location is so with the longitude and latidude co-ordinates you can find a particular location.
it is the north and south of the equator so the tropical caphroicorn would obviously be not it so what is it?
it can show you some state borders in the west.
There is no such longitude on Earth as 185°, neither east nor west. Granted, though, if one suddenly appeared, it would be considered important.
Geography is the study of the Earth's surface features and processes. In geography, it is important to locate these features on the surface of the planet. To do this you have to have some sort of coordinate system. Latitude and longitude are this system they enable maps of earth to be made and for airplanes and ships to get to places on the planet.
so you can figure out ways to go and so u can fined toe degrees
laitude and longitude are important by helping people pinpoit exact locations on the globe.
The lines of latitude and longitude are important because we need them to describe exactly where a point is on Earth.
Latitude and Longitude are used to point to exactly where you want to be
The most important lines of longitude and latitude are the equator, the prime meridian, tropic of Cancer, tropic of Capricorn and the international dateline.
Longitude lines go vertically and latitude lines go horizontally.
it is the north and south of the equator so the tropical caphroicorn would obviously be not it so what is it?
It marks the zero point.
So that they can know where theyre and can navigate
They are important for tracking and mapping points and places.
The Prime Meridian The International Date Line
it can show you some state borders in the west.
so you know how long or wide something is
