Answer:

In geography, longitude is the distance on the earth's surface, east or west of a defined meridian, usually the meridian of Greenwich, England (0° Longitude), expressed in angular measurements from 180° West (or -180°) to 180° East. Latitude and longitude can be used together to specify a precise location on the Earth.
