Answer 1

Answer:

the difference in latitude is 91.22°

the difference in longitude is 147.95°

Step-by-step explanation:

For Liverpool, London. The latitude is 53.41°, longitude is -2.99°

For  Melbourne, Australia. The latitude is -37.81°, longitude is 144.96°

The negative or positive magnitude of their values shows their position on either sides of the origin of the latitude (equator) and the origin of the longitude (prime meridian).

The latitude measures the relative position of a point, north or south of the equator (latitude 0°). The longitude measures the relative position, east or west of the prime meridian (longitude 0°)

the difference in latitude is 53.41° - (-37.81°) = 53.41° + 37.81° = 91.22°

the difference in longitude = 144.96° - (-2.99°) = 144.96 + 2.99 = 147.95°
