Degrees

Progress: 0%

Uses

Degrees are used to measure direction.

297°

Degrees are also be used to plot coordinates.

S 24° 32.4'
E 131° 13.7'

How can you tell the difference?

Latitude uses the letters S or N for south or north of the equator.

Longitude uses the letters E or W for east or west of the equator.

If the number has the letter E, W, S or N then it is a coordinate.

Don’t use a coordinate to steer the boat!
