Latitude and longitude allow a person to explain the city's situation in relationship to Belo Horizonte

Latitude and longitude rely on the Mercator Projection to represent locations on Earth's surface

Latitude and longitude rely on the Robinson Projection to represent locations on Earth's surface

1 answer

The BEST explanation of how latitude and longitude allow someone to locate a specific city is:

The location is defined by the intersection of the paraflets and the lines of latitude, establishing a unique point.

This option accurately describes how latitude (which runs parallel to the equator) and longitude (which runs from pole to pole) work together to create a specific point on the Earth's surface.
