Question

The summary of the importance of longitude and latitude

Answer 1

Answer:

latitudes

the horizontal circle that goes round the earth are called latitudes and in the middle at equal distance from North and South poles is called Equator zero degree latitude from equator going towards poles are several parallel circles ranges from zero degrees to 90 degrees is North and South poles latitude are called as WIDTH.

Longitudes

longitudes passing through astronomical observatory at Greenwich of England is called zero degree longitude or Prime Meridian or Greenwich Meridian. the longitude from two groups from 0° to 180 degrees North East and West directions to telling 360 degrees excluding zero degrees and 180 degrees

=> the longitude 180 degrees directly opposite to zero degrees longitude is called Anti Meridian

=> latitudes and longitudes are imaginary lines which divides the globe into 4 hemispheres.

=> Sun takes 4 minutes to move from one longitude to another longitude

=> world is divided into 24 time zones starting from Greenwich Meridian going towards east and West and the time taken for sun to complete one time zone is 15 degrees into 4 minutes is equals to 60 minutes or 1 hour.

=> some countries choose time along one Meridian that passes through their territory and follows for whole country

=> 82 degrees is equal to 30 minutes is equal to Eastern longitude is the standard Meridian of India and serves as Indian Standard Time (IST)

=> the exact difference between Greenwich 0° and IST is 5 and half hours.

=> if we travel from west to east you lose 4 minutes which is referred as East gain add ( EGA ) and when you are moving from east to west you gain 4 minutes which is referred to West lost subtract ( WLS )
