The latitude value of Toronto is 43.70 degrees, and the longitude value is 79.40 degrees. The latitude value of Melbourne is -37.81 degrees, and the longitude value is 144.96 degrees. The two cities are degrees apart in latitude. The two cities are degrees apart in longitude.

 

Sorry my delta longitude is false.

 

Δλ=144.96E+79.40W=224.36Δφ=43.70(37.81)=43.70+37.81=81.51

 

The two cities are degrees apart in latitude 81.51

The two cities are degrees apart in longitude 224.36

Toronto's Longitude is:79.40W

Melbourne's Longitude is:144.96E

Therefore they are 79.40 + 144.96=224.36 degrees apart

 

Toronto's latitude is:43.70N

Melbourne latitude is:-37.81S

Therefore they are 43.70 - (-37.81)=43.70 + 37.81=81.51 degrees apart.

The degrees apart in LONGITUDE depend on which direction you are measuring....the SMALLEST difference in LONGITUDE would be: (measuring Westward from Toronto to Melbourne)

(180 - 79.4E) + (180 - 144.96 W) = 135.64

Measuring the OTHER direction (Eastward from Toronro to Melbourne) would result in:

79.4E + 144.96W = 224.36

 

(note that the two answers add up to 360 !)
