Denmark is around 55N. Corresponding latitudes in North America would be in the middle of Canada. The only US state would be the southern tip of Alaska.
The latitude of a place is the angle from the Earth's equator north or south to that place.
The idea is there, but a couple of important terms are swapped.The altitude of the North Star above the northern horizon is approximately equal tothe observer's north latitude.
Yes. Kenya extends almost equal distances north and south of the equator ... from about 4.63° north latitude to 4.67° south latitude.
The altitude of the North Celestial Pole above the northern horizon is equal to the observer's latitude. This means that the higher the observer's latitude, the higher the North Celestial Pole will appear in the sky. For example, an observer at a latitude of 45 degrees will see the North Celestial Pole 45 degrees above the northern horizon.
The latitude of downtown Santa Fe NM is 35.6869 north. That's degree-plus-decimal notation: 35 degrees north, plus .6869 of a degree. It's equal to 35 degrees 41 minutes north latitude.
4940 kilometers...... (1 degree latitude is equal to 111 kilometers)
latitude of the observer
Either 35.5° north or 35° 30' (minutes) north.
-- All meridians of longitude have the same length ... they all join the north and south poles. -- Each parallel of north latitude has the same length as the parallel at the equal south latitude, but no other one.
63.55
Every point on the equator is equal distances from the north and south poles. No other line of latitude can make that statement.
At 37 degrees north latitude, 1 degree of longitude is approximately 53 miles. The distance varies depending on the latitude due to the Earth's curvature.
