Latitude and longitude are measured in degrees, not metres.
Because the earth is (roughly) spherical, 1 degree along the equator is much larger than 1 degree nearer the poles. The formula for converting degrees to metres would need adjusting for distance from the equator. Although mathematically, this is not difficult to define, it is not particularly advantageous for most purposes.
The metre was originally defined as one ten millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole along the longitude passing through Paris. That definition is no longer used, but is still sufficiently accurate.
Degrees of longitude are uniform in length. 1 degree (Longitude) = 69.69 miles*Cos(Ө)(latitude) however the length of a degree of latitude depends on were you are on the planet. A degree of latitude at the equator is notable longer than, for example, a degree of latitude at the latitude of Toronto, Canada.
Latitude and longitude are angles, and are described in the same units as any other angular quantity. 60 seconds = 1 minute 60 minutes = 1 degree 360 degrees = 1 full circle
There are many lines of latitude and longitude because they allow the user to locate a specific spot easier with a set of coordinates.
The units are incompatible. One measures time the other is distance Unless you are talking about latitude and longitude minutes.
It is 3600 seconds for you have 60 minutes in every degree so there are 60 seconds in every minute.
There are 39 states that are partially defined by longitude and latitude.
You need to specify the latitude and longitude of the end points and whether you want minutes of latitude or of longitude.
Every line of longitude intersects with every line of latitude and vic-versa.
Every point on Earth has longitude and latitude.
North America covers many dozens of degrees of latitude and longutude, so it's impossible to give one single exact figure.
Every line of constant latitude intersects every possible longitude, and vice-versa.
Florida does have Longitude and Latitude lines, and while they are documented on maps of this area and in many other ways the measurements were done many many years ago.
There are many Bloomingtons. Can you be more specific?
Longitude: 81° 37'W to 90° 28'W Latitude: 35°N to 36° 41'N
The equator is a latitude line, so it has no specific longitude. The equator is at 0o north or south. There are many points on the equator, so every point on the equator has a different longitude.
The country of Canada's latitude and longitude are 45.4000 degrees N, 75.6667 degrees W. Canada is located in North America.Canada ranges in latitude from about 41.7° north to about 83.1° north.It ranges in longitude from about 52.6° west to 141.0° west.
The center of Georgetown is located at 6.8° north latitude 58.18° west longitude. Other points in the country have different coordinates.
