Answer:
Latitude is the measurement of distance north or south of the Equator. It is measured with 180 imaginary lines that form circles around the Earth east-west, parallel to the Equator. These lines are known as parallels. A circle of latitude is an imaginary ring linking all points sharing a parallel.
Latitude marks how far north or south a point on Earth is in relation to the equator. The equator has a latitude of 0 degrees, and from there the latitude increases regardless of whether you move north or south. Both of the poles have latitudes of 90 degrees.
