Question

Imagine that a friend has asked you, "Where are you located right now?" Give thre 1. 2. 3. REFLECT & DISCUSS One of the oldest ways of describing a location on our spherical Earth is by using a coordinate system of latitude and longitude. On the map in Fig A1.1, notice how the red location is identified as 50"N. 150 W 1. On the map, lightly color in the country where you live. 2. Name a place of your choice to locate on the map (your current location, home, school, place of work, or other location). This will be referred to as your "home place' in the inquiry items below. 3. Place a dot on the map to show approximately where your home place is located, and then estimate its latitude and longitude as is already done for the red and blue points on the map Latitude: Longitude 4. Notice that the lines of latitude and longitude outline somewhat rectangular areas called guadrangles, like the one shaded pale red on the map. A quadrangle is an area bounded by parallels of latitude and meridians of longitude. Describe the location of the red quadrangle by giving its bounding latitudes and longitudes. 150 120 60 30 30 60 90 120 150 This point is 30° N, 150 W North Latitude 30S This point is 20* s, 140* w Degrees West Longitude 0° South Latitude Degrees East Longitude Figure A1.1

Explanation / Answer

on google maps we can take map , and give lat long of your place as Degree minutes and seconds , then you can mark dot on map you will get lat long as shown in fig "This point is"
