3 0

<u>Answer:</u>

The units used to measure distances between parallels and between meridians are degrees, minutes, and seconds.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The distance between two far-away latitudes or two far-away longitudes can be broadly measured in degrees.
  • In order to pinpoint any two locations lying across two different latitudes or longitudes, the distance can be tracked down to minutes and seconds.
  • The distance between two closest latitudes or two closest longitudes can only be measured in minutes and seconds because they would be placed only 59 minutes and 59 seconds apart.
