why is thenorth south extent of india larger than the east west extent even though the latitudinal extent in degrees is
of the same value?
The latitudinal and longitudinal extent of India is almost the same degrees.i.e 30 degrees. But the north south distance in Kilometers is 3214 and the east west distance is 2933 km. This is because of the nature of the latitudes and the longitudes. The distance between two is fixed between any two points and does not vary according to the area or shape. On the other hand, the longitudes are not parallel lines and the distance between the lines vary from equator to the poles. The distance is minimum at the poles and maximum near the equator.
