Latitude
Any of the imaginary lines that run around the Earth.
It shows how far North or South from the Equator.
The Equator is at 0° latitude, and the latitudes increase up to 90° at the poles.
Together with the longitude we can locate a precise position on the Earth.
(To help you remember that it runs side to side think "flat-itude".)
