In a two axis system does each point have two coordinates?
Correct.
Where is 41 N 74 W?
Tappan, New Jersey
What can you conclude about a point that has 0 as one of its coordinates?
That it is positioned on at least one axis of the coordinate system.
If a point in a three-dimensional system is labeled with the coordinates 1 2 -2 what is the Z coordinate?
The answer is -2
What is the point at which the lines intersect in a system of linear equations?
The coordinates of the point of intersection represents the solution to the linear equations.
How do you figure the latitude and longitude of the moon?
The system of latitude and longitude is used to describe the location of points on the surface of the earth. Celestial objects don't have latitude and longitude. There is a similar system defined in the sky. Those coordinates are called Right Ascension and Declination.
What does longitude and latitude do for geographers?
It is a system of coordinates used to accurately describe the location of a place.
What two coordinates is the Global Positioning System?
The Global Positioning System (GPS) uses longitude and latitude coordinates to determine a location on Earth. Longitude measures east-west position, while latitude measures north-south position. These coordinates are expressed in degrees, minutes, and sometimes seconds.
What is a geographic coordinates for longitude?
The system of latitude and longitude coordinates was invented as a means of specifying locations on the earth. Every location on the earth has a unique set of latitude and longitude coordinates, and every possible pair of latitude/longitude numbers you can name is on the earth.Perhaps the best answer to the question is: "All of them."
What is the latitude and longitude of mars?
"Longitude" and "latitude" are the coordinates used primarily in the system of locating points on the earth's surface. Even when that generalization doesn't hold, they're only applicable to the location of points on the surface of another sphere. There's no way to use that kind of system to locate a planet.
What is Earths reference system?
Earth's reference system is based on latitude and longitude, with the equator serving as the reference for latitude and the Prime Meridian as the reference for longitude. This system allows for precise location determination on Earth's surface using coordinates.
How is the latitude and longitude system different to the x and y coordinates on a graph?
On a graph, 'x' and 'y' are marked and measured in length or distance units. Latitude and longitude are marked and measured in angles.
What are coordinate?
Coordinates are numeral values within a plane or three-dimensional space that identify a point within that system. In geometry, Cartesian coordinates indicate values within a grid system of perpendicular axes. In geography, coordinates give latitude (North and South) and longitude (East and West). They show an exact place on the map and are traditionally expressed in degrees, minutes, and seconds (the angle from an arbitrary reference plane).
What is the latitude and longitude of Gemini?
The system of latitudes and longitudes is a method used to locate points on the Earth's surface. There is a similar coordinate system used to locate objects in the sky, but it's not latitude/longitude.
How can you pinpoint the exact location of a place on earth?
You can pinpoint the exact location of a place on earth by using longitude and latitude coordinates. You may also use a GPS system.
What is a map that shows longitude and latitude called?
A geographic coordinate system is a coordinate system that enables every location on the Earth to be specified by a set of numbers. The coordinates are often chosen such that one of the numbers represent vertical position, and twoor three of the numbers represent horizontal position. A common choice of coordinates is latitude, longitude and elevation.
Does every planet have a latitude and longitude?
No, not every planet in our solar system has latitude and longitude. These coordinates are specific to Earth's coordinate system and are used to locate points on the surface of the planet. Other planets may have their own unique coordinate systems or may not have a system in place at all.
