Latitude and Longitude. Locating places using coordinate system.

1. Location of the Philippines in relation to
continents and oceans using a coordinate system

2. Lines of latitude and longitude are invisible
lines that divide the earth. We use this line
so we can locate countries, cities, and land
marks quickly and accurately.
TERMINOLOGIES
1. Latitude – an imaginary line around the
Earth parallel to the equator. Often
referred to as the parallels of latitude.
This is because latitude are lines that run
parallel to the equator. They are flat line
in the globe or map. It looks like a ladder.

4. 2. Longitude - refers to the imaginary lines
that bisect the globe through the North
and South Poles.

5. 3. Equator – located at the center of the
earth and is the line that separates the
Northern hemisphere and Southern
hemisphere.
4. Prime Meridian - The prime meridian is
the planet’s line of zero degrees
longitude. Slicing the earth along the
circle of the prime meridian would divide
it into the Eastern and Western
hemispheres

2. 23.5˚N Tropic of Cancer
3. 23.5˚S Tropic of Capricorn
4. 66.5˚N Arctic Circle
5. 66.5˚S Antarctic Circle

10.  Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn
experience a tropic climate where the annual
average temperature is above 18˚C.
 Between the tropic of Cancer and the Arctic
Circle is the northern temperate zone;
between the tropic of Capricorn and the
Antarctic Circle is the southern temperate
zone. Countries in thesezones go through
four seasons – winter, spring, summer and
autumn.
 The areas within the Arctic Circle and
Antarctic Circle are called the polar regions or
frigid zones.
