Place The Longitude Coordinates In The Order Of A Oneway Journey From East To West Please Help ASAP class=

Sagot :

The order in which the coordinates would go is as follows:

  • 163° 4'38'' E
  • 45° 10' 3'' E
  • 45° 7' 12'' E
  • 28° 51' 55'' W
  • 90° 23' 1'' W  
  • 179° 59' 59'' W

When moving from the East to the West, you would be approaching to Prime Meridian which is 0°. This means that for longitudinal lines marked as "°E" their value would keep dropping till they get to the Prime Meridian.

This is why the first "°E" in the order is larger than the last one.

When you pass the Prime Meridian and begin going west, the numbers will keep increasing and this is why the first line marked "°W" is lower than the last number.

In conclusion, lines of longitude are change differently as one travels past the prime meridian.
