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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
21 Ιουν 2024 · 1. The Equator – The Most Well-Known Parallel. The Equator is the most famous imaginary line on Earth. Located at 0 degrees latitude, it equally divides our planet into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
26 Ιαν 2020 · Four of the most significant imaginary lines running across the surface of Earth are the equator, the Tropic of Cancer, the Tropic of Capricorn, and the prime meridian. While the equator is the longest line of latitude on Earth (the line where Earth is widest in an east-west direction), the tropics are based on the sun's position in relation to ...
