Latitude vs. Attitude — What's the Difference?

In geography, latitude is a geographic coordinate that specifies the north–south position of a point on the Earth's surface. Latitude is an angle (defined below) which ranges from 0° at the Equator to 90° (North or South) at the poles.

A settled way of thinking or feeling about something

The angular distance of a place north or south of the earth's equator, or of the equator of a celestial object, usually expressed in degrees and minutes

Truculent or uncooperative behaviour

Scope for freedom of action or thought

The orientation of an aircraft or spacecraft, relative to the direction of travel.

The angular distance north or south of the earth's equator, measured in degrees along a meridian, as on a map or globe.

A manner of thinking, feeling, or behaving that reflects a state of mind or disposition

A region of the earth considered in relation to its distance from the equator:temperate latitudes.

Arrogant or aggressive disposition or behavior

(Astronomy)The angular distance of a celestial body north or south of the ecliptic.

A position of the body or manner of carrying oneself

Freedom from normal restraints, limitations, or regulations.

A position similar to an arabesque in which a ballet dancer stands on one leg with the other raised either in front or in back and bent at the knee.

A range of values or conditions, especially the range of exposures over which a photographic film yields usable images.

The orientation of an aircraft's axes relative to a reference line or plane, such as the horizon.

(Archaic)Width; breadth.

The orientation of a spacecraft relative to its direction of motion.

The angular distance north or south from a planet's equator, measured along the meridian of that particular point.

The position of the body or way of carrying oneself.

(geography) An imaginary line (in fact a circumference) around a planet running parallel to the planet's equator.

(figurative) Disposition or state of mind.

(figurative) The relative freedom from restrictions; scope to do something.

Unpleasant behavior.

(astronomy) The angular distance of a heavenly body from the ecliptic.

The orientation of a vehicle or other object relative to the horizon, direction of motion, other objects, etc.

(photography) The extent to which a light-sensitive material can be over- or underexposed and still achieve an acceptable result.

(ballet) A position similar to arabesque, but with the raised leg bent at the knee.

Extent or scope; e.g. breadth, width or amplitude.

To assume or to place in a particular position or orientation; to pose.

Extent from side to side, or distance sidewise from a given point or line; breadth; width.

To express an attitude through one's posture, bearing, tone of voice, etc.

Room; space; freedom from confinement or restraint; hence, looseness; laxity; independence.

The posture, action, or disposition of a figure or a statue.

Extent or breadth of signification, application, etc.; extent of deviation from a standard, as truth, style, etc.

The posture or position of a person or an animal, or the manner in which the parts of his body are disposed; position assumed or studied to serve a purpose; as, a threatening attitude; an attitude of entreaty.

Extent; size; amplitude; scope.

Fig.: Position as indicating action, feeling, or mood; as, in times of trouble let a nation preserve a firm attitude; one's mental attitude in respect to religion.

Distance north or south of the equator, measured on a meridian.

A complex mental state involving beliefs and feelings and values and dispositions to act in certain ways;

The angular distance of a heavenly body from the ecliptic.

Position or arrangement of the body and its limbs;

The angular distance between an imaginary line around a heavenly body parallel to its equator and the equator itself

A theatrical pose created for effect;

Freedom from normal restraints in conduct;

Position of aircraft or spacecraft relative to a frame of reference (the horizon or direction of motion)

An imaginary line around the Earth parallel to the equator

Scope for freedom of e.g. action or thought; freedom from restriction
