Latitude comes from the Latin word LATITUDO meaning width. They are series of parallel circles. The horizontal circle that goes around the globe exactly in the middle at equal distance from North Pole to south poles is called Equator. Half of the earth between the equator and North Pole is called the northern hemisphere and the half that is between the equator and the South Pole is called is Southern hemisphere. There are 180 latitude. Latitudes help in knowing the variation climate. This is the circle best designated as zero degrees latitude. Latitudes are expressed in degrees, minutes ('), seconds (")
LONGITUDE..
Latin gives us the word LONGITUDO meaning length. Longitudes are not full circles.. the longitude that passes through the astronomical observatory at Greenwich, England is called this zero degree meridian or the Prime Meridian or the Greenwich Meridian. 0° to 180 degree going East which are the east longitude and zero degree to 180 degree going West which are the west longitudes. There are 360 longitudes. Longitudes help us to determine the time..

the latitudinal extent of India from 8°4'N to 37°6'N
significance of latitude are:-
1 climate varies due to 30°of wide latitudinal extension
2 it helps in bringing rain to the southern part of India which is lying in the warm tropical zone
3 due to this extention the problem of the water scarcity in the northern India is solved
=========================================================
the longitudinal extent of india is 68° 7' 53" E to 97° 24' 47" E longitudes.
significance of longitudes are;-
1 due to this we have a time difference of 2 hours from gujarat to arunachal pradesh
2 it is a vital factor in change in climate in the subcontinent
