Latitude:
- Latitudes are the imaginary lines on the Earth.....
- They are also called parallel lines because they never touch each other....
- If we draw latitude at a distance of 1 degree than we have 182 latitudes in total.....
- Latitudes are complete circles on the Earth and there length goes on decreasing as they move towards the pole.....
- Equator is the largest latitude.....
Longitude:
- Longitudes are drawn on Earth from north pole to south pole....
- All longitudes are of same length....
- They start from the same point and end at the same point...
- They help us to know Location and time....
- Prime meridian is marked as 0 degree...
- They are 360 in numbers.....
