Answer: 1. it is said that when it is 2:00 p.m. at Greenwich the time at Dhaka is 8 p.m.. hence there is a difference of 6 hours between the two places. the longitudinal difference should be calculated accordingly.
Now we know that it 1 hour is equal to 15degree degree of longitude difference. for 6 hours the difference in the longitude will be equal to 90 degree.
Hence the latitude will be 90° east
2. Since Missouri is opposite of Dhaka hence there will be 12 hour difference and it will be 8 a.m. at Missouri in United States
