Latitude lines run east and west and are used to measure distances north and south of the equator. Each degree of latitude is approximately 69.2 miles apart due to the Earth's circumference of 24,901.92 miles. This calculator helps you determine the distance between two points of latitude by multiplying the difference in degrees by 69.2 miles.
Let's calculate the distance between 20° north and -10° south:
The distance between 20° north and -10° south is 2,076 miles.
