Rules For Solving DLAT (Difference of Latitude)

 From latitude 14 degrees north thru latitude 14 degrees south, what is the DLAT?

Given: 

           Latitude 1 = 14 degrees north 

           Latitude 2 = 14 degrees south 

Solution: 

           This is the rule for solving DLAT ,

            Same name of latitude--we have to subtract 

           Different name of latitude -- we have to add

           Latitude = 14 degrees north

           Latitude = 14 degrees south    

                  Dlat = 28 degrees south is the difference                                  of latitude 

       The sign of the DLAT  is south because that is the direction.
