Which is the correct explanation for 40°N latitude? A. all positions along a circle that runs parallel to the equator and 40° south of it B. all positions along a circle that runs perpendicular to the equator and 40° west of it C. all positions along a circle that runs perpendicular to the equator and 40° east of it D. all positions along a circle that runs parallel to the equator and 40° north of it
"D. all positions along a circle that runs parallel to the equator and 40° north of it" is the correct answer. Latitude measures distances East to West, meaning its position is north of the equator.
