To solve the problem of identifying the correct letters corresponding to the given latitude and longitude coordinates, we need to carefully analyze the map provided in the image. Here's a step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Understand the Map
- The map shows lines of latitude (horizontal lines) and longitude (vertical lines).
- Latitude lines are marked with degrees north (N) or south (S) of the equator.
- Longitude lines are marked with degrees east (E) or west (W) of the Prime Meridian (0° longitude).
Step 2: Match Coordinates to Letters
We will match each set of coordinates to the corresponding letter on the map.
#### 1.
60°S, 120°W
- Find 60°S latitude (south of the equator).
- Find 120°W longitude (west of the Prime Meridian).
- The intersection is near point
F.
#### 2.
45°S, 150°E
- Find 45°S latitude.
- Find 150°E longitude (east of the Prime Meridian).
- The intersection is near point
G.
#### 3.
75°N, 90°W
- Find 75°N latitude (north of the equator).
- Find 90°W longitude.
- The intersection is near point
A.
#### 4.
60°N, 120°E
- Find 60°N latitude.
- Find 120°E longitude.
- The intersection is near point
C.
#### 5.
30°S, 0°
- Find 30°S latitude.
- Find 0° longitude (the Prime Meridian).
- The intersection is near point
I.
#### 6.
15°N, 45°W
- Find 15°N latitude.
- Find 45°W longitude.
- The intersection is near point
B.
#### 7.
30°N, 180°E
- Find 30°N latitude.
- Find 180°E longitude (opposite the Prime Meridian).
- The intersection is near point
J.
#### 8.
0°, 150°W
- Find 0° latitude (the equator).
- Find 150°W longitude.
- The intersection is near point
H.
#### 9.
60°N, 60°E
- Find 60°N latitude.
- Find 60°E longitude.
- The intersection is near point
D.
#### 10.
15°S, 75°E
- Find 15°S latitude.
- Find 75°E longitude.
- The intersection is near point
K.
Step 3: Write the Answers
Now, we write the letters next to the correct coordinates:
1.
F (60°S, 120°W)
2.
G (45°S, 150°E)
3.
A (75°N, 90°W)
4.
C (60°N, 120°E)
5.
I (30°S, 0°)
6.
B (15°N, 45°W)
7.
J (30°N, 180°E)
8.
H (0°, 150°W)
9.
D (60°N, 60°E)
10.
K (15°S, 75°E)
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{F, G, A, C, I, B, J, H, D, K}
\]
