Circles of latitude

Horse latitudes

The horse latitudes are the latitudes about 30 degrees north and south of the Equator. They are characterized by sunny skies, calm winds, and very little precipitation. They are also known as subtropical ridges, or highs. It is a high-pressure area at the divergence of trade winds and the westerlies. (Wikipedia).

How to determine the reference angle of an angle in degrees

👉 Learn how to find the reference angle of a given angle. The reference angle is the acute angle formed by the terminal side of an angle and the x-axis. To find the reference angle, we determine the quadrant on which the given angle lies and use the reference angle formula for the quadrant
