If we have coordinates of 14.5 N, 49.5 E as a starting point and we want to go the the coordinates of 10 N, 45 E, then we will move in a southwestern direction. This is fairly easy to explain 14.5 N is further north than 10 N, as the greater the number, the greater the distance from the Equator, so 10 N is located on the south of 14.5 N. 49.5 E is further east than 45 E, again with the same principle, the greater the number, the further away it is from the Prime Meridian, so 45 E is west of 49.5 E. Since we have 10 N being south of 14.5 N, and 45 E being west of 49.5 E, if we make a line it will come to be a diagonal in a southwestern direction.
urban areas are mostly characterised by high population advanced technology and basic amenities. The population helps to increase productivity which leads to economic development, employment opportunities that promotes increase in standard of living which in turn helps economic development.
