Answer:

Latitude runs from East to West while longitude runs from North to South.

Explanation:

The two values of the coordinates are angles. While longitude refers to the east-west angular measure relative to the prime meridian, latitude provides an angular measure of the distance of the location north or south of the equator. Angles are measured using the earth's centre as the origin for both latitude and longitude. A longitude is an angle measured to the east from the prime meridian (longitudes to the west are negative). Measured in latitudes is the angle up from the equator (latitudes to the south are negative).

They represent the angular distance between a point on the earth's surface and its geographical coordinate.
