Hi! I'm going to share a website quote that speaks about this, full disclaimer: the website is quoted and cited.
"Lines of latitude (parallels) run east-west around the globe and are used to measure distances NORTH and SOUTH of the equator. Since the equator is 0 , the latitude of the north pole, 1/4 of the way around the globe going in a northerly direction, would be 90 N. This is the highest latitude possible."

Answer: C
Geography is used to tell people where something is, like for example:
<em>The Eiffel Tower is in Paris.</em>
It also is used to help people understand how nature affects their communities. For example:
<em>A hurricane can destroy your home.</em>

Hope this helps!
Latitudes and the earth's radius are used to measure distances.
