Answer 2

The axis of the earth is not useful in locating places on the globe.

• The earth rotates around its axis. Axis passes through the centre of the earth.

• It's actually latitude and longitude which help us locating places on earth.

• Latitudes and longitudes are imaginary lines just for the purpose of denoting locations.

• Latitudes are horizontal lines with equator being one of them.

• Longitudes are vertical lines along with prime meridian which passes through Greenwich, London.

• Combination of latitudes and longitudes help us locating places on earth.
