What are the Longitudinal and latitudinal extent of India?

India lies to the north of the equator between 6° 44′ and 35° 30′ north latitude and 68° 7′ and 97° 25′ east longitude.

Explanation

• India is located in the northern hemisphere of the world.
• The Tropic of Cancer (23°30’N) passes almost halfway through the country India. It is North from the Equator, that passes through the middle of India. The Tropic of Cancer passes through eight states in India
• From the extends south to north, the mainland of India extends between 8°4’N and 37°6’N latitudes.
• From the other extends west to east, India extends between 68°7’E and 97°25’E longitudes.
• The distance between latitudes remain the same throughout but the distance between the two longitudes reduces as moved towards poles
• The distance between two latitudes is constant that is 111 km but the distance between two longitudes is 111 km at the equator and reduces to 0 at the poles.
• Due to the great longitudinal extent and difference of about 29°, there are wide differences in local time of places located at two extreme points of the country.
• The difference between these two points would be approximate of about two hours.
