How important are the reference points in a coordinate system?
If the reference points are not correct, the location of any coordinate will be incorrect.

What are three reference points used to describe a star or planet's location in relation to a person's position?
Three common reference points are azimuth (direction along the horizon), altitude (height above the horizon), and declination (angle north or south of the celestial equator). These points are used to describe a star or planet's location in relation to an observer's position on Earth.
What does longitude and latitude do for geographers?
It is a system of coordinates used to accurately describe the location of a place.
Do Maps frequently include a grid system to help describe the location of a place?
yes

Does a speeding ticket in VA carry points on a NC license?
Yes. Since points are added based on speed and type of violation, and not the location of the violation. The points are based off NC system, though, not VA system.
A coordinate system allows one to describe points using?
both x and y coordinates *apex*
How do you measure the width of a state?
You could use satellites with GPS to identify the location of the points that are furthest East and West. The GPS system may give you the distance between the points. Otherwise, you need to measure this along the Great Circle.You could use satellites with GPS to identify the location of the points that are furthest East and West.
