Claire is on a business trip. She’ll be traveling from Toronto, Canada, to Melbourne, Australia.
The latitude value of Toronto is 43.70 degrees, and the longitude value is 79.40 degrees. The latitude value of Melbourne is -37.81 degrees, and the longitude value is 144.96 degrees. The two cities are _______ degrees apart in latitude. The two cities are_______ degrees apart in longitude.

Answer 1

To find the distance of both latitude and longitude, we must subtract the lat/lon of Toronto from Melbourne.

Melbourne lat: -37.81
Toronto lat: 43.7

-37.81 - 43.7 = -81.51
Latitude distance: -81.51 or 81.51

Melbourne lon: 144.96
Toronto lon: 79.4

144.96 - 79.4 = 65.59
Longitude distance: 65.59
