Question

The model below shows latitude and longitude lines on Earth. Point A represents a location on Earth. The latitude lines shown are spaced 10° apart and the longitude lines are spaced 15° apart. Determine the latitude of location A.

Answer 1

According to the information provided, point A is located at latitude 30° and longitude -45°

The image shows the imaginary division that has been made to the Earth to facilitate the location of specific points using coordinates.

Latitude is the one that represents the North or South location of a point and ranges from 0° at the equator to 90° at the poles.

On the other hand, longitude ranges from 0 ° (Greenwich Mean Time) to 180° East or West latitude.

According to the above, the location of point a is at latitude 30° because each latitudinal line represents 10° and -45° longitude because each line represents 15°, in addition, it is negative because it is in the left quadrant.
