more geography! We went over the Latitude and Climate worksheet and started going over 6-11. We'll finish that off next class.
Homework:
Finish 6-10 (Computing Distance) and the other side (Telling Time).
Please note, with computing distance, 1 degree of longitude has a different number of miles depending on the line of latitude the point we're interested is on. For example, question 1a) How many miles from point A to B? We look at where point A is (50 degrees N 0 degrees). The chart tells us that at 50 degrees N or S, one degree of longitude is 45 miles. Point B is at 50 degrees N 30 degrees E, so 45 x 30 = ???
Reminder: Tuesday's prayer leaders are Analisa and Tyson.
