1.	Calculate the distance between 2 lines of latitude.
Answer» $\Large\color{darkblue}\underline{\underline{\sf Answer-}}$ If you TREAT the EARTH as a sphere with a CIRCUMFERENCE of 25,000 miles, then ONE degree of LATITUDE is 25,000/360 = 69.44 miles. A minute is thus 69.44/60 = 1.157 miles, and a second is 1.15/60 = 0.0193 miles, or about 101 feet

$\Large\color{darkblue}\underline{\underline{\sf Answer-}}$

If you TREAT the EARTH as a sphere with a CIRCUMFERENCE of 25,000 miles, then ONE degree of LATITUDE is 25,000/360 = 69.44 miles. A minute is thus 69.44/60 = 1.157 miles, and a second is 1.15/60 = 0.0193 miles, or about 101 feet
