Question

What is the eastern longitudinal extent of India?

1 point

97° 25' E

68° 7' E

8° 4' N

37° 6' N​

Answer 1

$\LARGE{ \underline{ \bf{Required \: answer:}}}$

Here Longitude means the imaginary lines which runs vertically across the earth. They are towards the east and west direction of the prime meridian.

The Longitudinal extent is determined within its eastern and western longitude of the country. In India, the eastern most longitude as shows in the attachment is

$\huge{ \boxed{ \underline{ \green{ \sf{97 \degree 25' \: E}}}}}$

That is Option A

"The longitudinal extent of India is between 68°7'E (Gujarat) and 97°25'E (Arunachal Pradesh)".

Latitudinal extent is another measure of the imaginary lines which runs horizontally. That means, Tropic of Cancer, Tropic of Capricorn and Equator are the latitudes.

The latitudinal extent of India from the north end Kashmir to south end Kanniyakumari is 37°6′N to 8°4′N.

Answer 2

Answer:

Here Longitude means the imaginary lines which runs vertically across the earth. They are towards the east and west direction of the prime meridian.

The Longitudinal extent is determined within its eastern and western longitude of the country. In India, the eastern most longitude as shows in the attachment is

$\huge \bf \purple {97° 25' E}$

That is Option A

"The longitudinal extent of India is between 68°7'E (Gujarat) and 97°25'E (Arunachal Pradesh)".

Latitudinal extent is another measure of the imaginary lines which runs horizontally. That means, Tropic of Cancer, Tropic of Capricorn and Equator are the latitudes.

The latitudinal extent of India from the north end Kashmir to south end Kanniyakumari is 37°6′N to 8°4′N.
