Latitude and Longitude….
Latitude linesrun across the mapmeasured in degreesnorth and southof the Equatorthey are paralleldecrease in length towards the Poles
Longitude linesrun up and down the mapmeasured in degreeseast and west of the Greenwich Meridianthey converge at the Polesthey are all the same length
