Lines of latitude (also called parallels) are imaginary lines that circle Earth’s surface, running east and west parallel to the Equator. Lines of longitude (also called meridians) run between the geographic North Pole and the geographic South Pole and are used to measure distances from the prime meridian.
24 Ιουν 2024 · One of the most well-known imaginary lines on Earth is the Equator. Located at 0 degrees latitude, the Equator runs horizontally, equally dividing the Earth into the Northern and Southern hemispheres.
24 Σεπ 2021 · The imaginary lines on Earth are lines drawn on the planisphere map. These lines are displayed vertically and horizontally, creating a defined grid used to locate any planet point. These lines are called meridians and parallels.
19 Οκτ 2023 · An equator is an imaginary line around the middle of a planet or other celestial body. It is halfway between the north pole and the south pole, at 0 degrees latitude. An equator divides the planet into a northern hemisphere and a southern hemisphere. Earth is widest at its Equator.
9 Δεκ 2014 · This document discusses key lines on the globe used to identify locations on Earth. It describes parallels and meridians, which are imaginary lines that intersect to form a grid. Parallels run east-west and define latitude, while meridians run north-south and define longitude.
19 Μαρ 2021 · Latitudes are the progressive angular measurements north or south of the equator are the imaginary lines running from east to west on the Earth’s surface. While Longitudes are the measurements east or west of the Prime Meridian and run from the north pole to the south pole.
We use imaginary lines to find where a place is in the world. We use lines of latitude to find out how far north or south a place is. These lines run parallel to the Equator.
