The highest degrees of latitude are closest to the equator?
No. 90 degrees latitude corresponds to the north and south poles,while the latitude of the equator is zero. So you'd have to say thatthe lowest latitudes are the ones closest to the equator.
What line of latitude is 90 degrees north or the equator?
90 degrees north latitude is the north pole. The equator is zero latitude.
How many degrees of latitude are there from zero degrees latitude to the north pole?
There are 90 degrees latitude from the equator (zero degrees latitude) to the North Pole.
What latitude coordinate is closest to the equator?
The equator is the 'zero' of latitude, so the smaller the latitude number is, the closer it is to the equator. There's no such thing as the 'closest' or smallest. You can name any latitude you want to, and no matter how small it is, I can always name a smaller one.
What is the difference of latitude from latitude 040 degrees north to the equator?
40 degrees. The equator is zero latitude.
How many degrees of latitude separate the two special parallels that are closest to the equator?
The equator, located at 0 degrees latitude, separates the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn, which are both located at 23.5 degrees north and south latitude respectively.
Is 45 degrees north a line of latitude?
Yes, 45 degrees north is a line of latitude. It is 45 degrees north of the equator and it represents a specific parallel circle on the Earth's surface.
What is distance north or south of the earth's equator?
Latitude. 2nd answer: Latitude is the wrong answer. Distance is measured in miles, feet, yards, meters, kilometers, and so forth. Latitude is a measurement of degrees, not distance.
How many degrees of north latitude are there?
there is 90 degrees of north latitude.There are 90 degrees of latitude going north from the Equator
Is 20 degrees Southe closer to the equator or is 10 degrees north?
The "north" and "south" latitude references begin at the equator. So "20 degrees" north or south are both 20 degrees from the equator, and "10 degrees" north or south are both 10 degrees from the equator. 10 is closer to the equator than 20.
The parallel of latitude that is north of the equator?
There are 2 major lines of latitude located north of the equator. The Tropic of Cancer is located at 23.5 degrees north latitude while the Arctic Circle is located at 66.5 degrees north latitude.
How latitudes are measured?
Latitudes are measured in degrees north or south of the equator, which is 0 degrees latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees north latitude, while the South Pole is at 90 degrees south latitude. Lines of latitude run east-west and are parallel to the equator.
