Equator- (noun)

• An imaginary line forming a circle around the Earth; an equal distance from the North and South poles, dividing the Earth into the Northern and Southern hemispheres

• Is Mexico or the United States closer to the Equator?

Longitude- (noun)

These lines run vertically around the Earth measuring how far east or west an object is.

The Republic of Portugal lies to the north of the Equator at latitude 39º30º

Latitude (noun)These lines that extend around the Earth horizontally and measure how far north or south an object is from the equator

Latitude and longitude help you find places on a globe to know exactly where someplace is.
