what are 4 countries found on the equator and their locations? 30 degrees North longitude and 30 degrees east latitude, what country is this located in? What is the difference between latitude and latitude lines?

I don't have a globe so how am i supposed to do some of this?

Any world map or atlas will be a good source for this information.

This site has an excellent world map.

If you post your answers, we'll be glad to check them.

Brazil, columbia, Equador, Kenya are located on the equator. And Egypt is located 30 degrees north longitude and 30 degrees east latitude. But i didn't figure out the difference between latitude and latitude lines.

You're right about the countries. :-)

Latitude lines go around the globe -- east-west -- and are parallel to each other. They measure distance from the Prime Meridian.

Longitude lines go up and down (the long way) -- north-south. They are not parellel to each other, but meet at the Poles. They measure distance from the Equator.

subtract the highest from the lowest and divide by four

To find the answer to your first question, you can use online maps or geographical resources. Here are four countries found on the equator and their locations:

1. Ecuador: Located in South America, with its capital city, Quito, crossed by the equator.
2. Brazil: A significant part of Brazil lies on the equator, including cities like Macapa and Santarem.
3. Kenya: Located in East Africa, the country's capital, Nairobi, is situated a few miles south of the equator.
4. Indonesia: The equator passes through several islands of Indonesia, including Sumatra, Kalimantan, and Sulawesi.

Now, for your second question, coordinates such as "30 degrees North longitude and 30 degrees East latitude" do not refer to any specific country. Longitude and latitude are the two coordinates used to pinpoint locations on the Earth's surface.

Latitude refers to the imaginary lines that run parallel to the equator, measuring distances north or south from the equator. The equator itself is 0 degrees latitude, and the poles are 90 degrees north and south latitude.

Longitude, on the other hand, refers to the imaginary lines that run from the North Pole to the South Pole, measuring distances east or west from the Prime Meridian. The Prime Meridian, passing through Greenwich, London, is assigned the value of 0 degrees longitude, and the lines extend up to 180 degrees east and west.

If you don't have a physical globe, there are online resources like Google Earth or dedicated mapping websites that provide interactive maps and allow you to explore different locations and coordinates. These tools can help you visualize and locate places accurately without the need for a physical globe.
