This point is in northeastern Mali.
I'm happy to see this question because it's the first time I get to refer to a city that I've been keeping in reserve but has never come up before.
This point is about 730 miles northeast of Bamako, 250 miles north of Gao, and 300 miles northeast of ...
. . . . . wait for it . . . . .
Timbuktu !
0 degrees latitude and 0 degrees longitude.
The prime meridian is a line of longitude, to find the location at 51.8 degrees north latitude, you would need to look for the specific country or city where this latitude intersects the prime meridian.
Devils Tower is located in the state of Wyoming, USA. It is about 43.5 degrees north of the equator and 104.42 degrees west of the Prime Meridian.
There is no land located at 130 degrees north latitude as this would be in the Arctic Ocean. The North Pole is the point located at 90 degrees north latitude.
There are 2 major lines of latitude located north of the equator. The Tropic of Cancer is located at 23.5 degrees north latitude while the Arctic Circle is located at 66.5 degrees north latitude.

The peak of the Devil's Tower National Monument is located 44.59064 degrees north of the equator (its latitude) and 104.71516 degrees west of the Prime Meridian (its longitude).

There are 2 major lines of latitude located north of the equator. The Tropic of Cancer is located at 23.5 degrees north latitude while the Arctic Circle is located at 66.5 degrees north latitude.
The equator is located at 0 degrees latitude making it a parallel. Distances north and south of the equator are measured from this point.
The Prime Meridian, located at 0 degrees longitude, runs from the North to South pole. It serves as the starting point for measuring longitude and divides the Earth into the Eastern and Western Hemispheres.
At noon at the prime meridian on the equator, the time at 55 degrees north latitude on the same meridian would be 5:40 AM. This is because every 15 degrees of longitude represents one hour of time difference, so 55 degrees north of the equator is 3 hours and 40 minutes behind the prime meridian.
A set of latitude/longitude numbers nails down a single point on the Earth. The point can be located on a continent, but a whole continent can't be located at a point. The point 20° N / 0° is in the Sahara desert in northeast Mali, about 990 miles north of Accra, Ghana, and 1,050 miles east of Africa's Atlantic coast.
It means that Washington D.C. is located at a latitude of 39 degrees north and a longitude of 77 degrees west. Latitude measures how far north or south a location is from the Equator, while longitude measures how far east or west a location is from the Prime Meridian.
the Prime meridian is a longitudinal line at 0 degrees and runs north and south. There is no 180 degrees below or above it. 180 degrees latitude doesn't exist. Latitudes range from 90 degrees south, at the south pole, through zero, at the equator, to 90 degrees north, at the north pole. There are no latitude numbers greater than 90.
