how to convert a latitude and Longitude(degree units) to X Y(length units)?

Greetings everyone!
I am trying to simulate trajectory of UAV, for this I have used TIFF file for initial simulations that returns X Y coordinates (using ginput command), it worked well but when i tried to use geographic axes (geoplot) that returns latitude and longitude, I couldn't simulate proper trajectory as the units differ so i want to convert latitude and longitude to X and Y respectively.
NOTE: I have tried using deg2km or grn2eqa command but they dont give actual X/Y coordinates as shown by TIFF file, images have been given for refernce, same point has been selected to get readings

In https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/724822-how-to-convert-a-latitude-and-longitude-degree-units-to-x-y-length-units#comment_1280392 I posted links to functions that convert from lat/long to X/Y coordinates. However, whether those functions are appropriate depends upon the datatype of the raster reference R . I do not know whether they are the correct functions for your purposes because you have not shown me the output of the class(R ) that I asked for.
Please execute
[A, R, map] = readgeoraster('ISTILL.tif');
class(R)
and tell me what the output is.
