    Cartesian Plane Grid Applications


    Latitude and longitude are a grid system used to locate If we were to graph a location point onto a cartesian
    positions around the earth. Latitude lines run parallel to the plane, the South latitude point would be negative and the West
    equator, where the zero value is the equator. Longitude lines longitude point would also be negative; North and East are
    run perpendicular to the equator, so they run North Pole to both positive. The range of latitude values is -90 to 90 and the
    South Pole. Latitude can be thought of as y values and range for longitude values is -180 to 180.
    longitude as x values.
    Using the graph paper provided you will need to graph the
    following locations:
    1) New York City, America, 40ºN, 74ºW
    2) St. Petersburg, Russia, 60ºN, 30ºE
    3) Fiji, 17ºS, 178ºE
    4) Cape Town, South Africa, 34ºS, 18ºE
    5) Quito, Ecuador, 0ºS, 78ºW
    6) Buenos Aires, Argentina, 35ºS, 58ºW

    * Latitude and longitude coordinates are in the format of


    (y, x). For your graphs and locations you need to change
    them to (x, y).

    *You will be assessed on the necessary components of your


    graph, neatness and organization, scale, and accuracy of the six
    points.
