Explanation:
The four cardinal directions, or cardinal points, are the directions north, east, south, and west, commonly denoted by their initials N, E, S, and W. East and west are perpendicular (at right angles) to north and south, with east being in the clockwise direction of rotation from north and west being directly opposite .
The longitudes run from the north pole to the south pole and so from top of the earth to the bottom. The distance between two longitudes is referred to as longitudinal extent. Latitudinal extent: The measure of the distance latitudinally is referred to as latitudinal extent.
