Question

what are latitudes? List the features of latitudes . indicate , diagramatically, some important latitudes? answer the questions​

Answer 1

Answer:

the distance of a place north or south of the line that we imagine around the middle of the earth (the equator) is called latitudes.

Features of latitudes are:

1.Latitude is the angular distance of a place north or south of the Equator.

2.There are 180 parallels of latitudes apart from the Equator.

3.Each parallel of latitude is a circle.

4.Only the Equator is a Great Circle, all the rest of the latitudes are Small Circles.

The seven important lines of latitude are the equator at 0 degrees, Tropic of Capricorn at 23.5 degrees south, Tropic of Cancer at 23.5 degrees north, Antarctic Circle at 66.5 degrees south, Arctic Circle at 66.5 degrees north, the South Pole at 90 degrees south and the North Pole at 90 degrees north.
