Question

what is latitudes??​

Answer 1

Answer:

latitude is a geographic coordinate that specifies the north–south position of a point on the Earth's surface. Latitude is an angle which ranges from 0° at the Equator to 90° at the poles. Lines of constant latitude, or parallels, run east–west as circles parallel to the equator.

Answer 2

Explanation:

all the parallel circles from the equator up to the poles are called the parallels of latitudes Latitudes are measured in degrees the equator represents the zero degree latitude .since the distance from the equator to either of the poles is one-forth of a circle round the earth ,it will measure one-fourth of 360degrees ,

eg}90° thus 90degrees north latitude marks north pole and 90degrees south latitude marks the south pole all such parallels north of the equator are called north latitudes all parallels to the south are called south latitudes.
