What meridian is west 75 degrees w?

Answer 1

All of them are.

Answer 2

That's like asking "What is the next distance greater than 47.3 miles ?",

or "What is the next heavier weight after 1851/4 pounds ?"

There is no minimum-size "step". The "next" one can be as close to 75 degrees as

you want it to be. And no matter how close it is, somebody can always come along

and slip one in that's even closer.

There is no standard set of "lines" of latitude or longitude. That's definitely the

biggest, most universal misconception we see in this category of questions.

Answer 3

It is the line of longitude that runs from the north to south poles, and is 75 degrees to the west of the Prime Meridian. The Prime Meridian passes through the Greenwich Observatory, London, UK, and is 0 degrees.

Answer 4

That's a lot like asking "What is the next height taller than 5feet 10.342601940inches ?"

There is no 'next' one, because every longitude can be marked by its own meridian,

and there's no such thing as the 'next' number after 75.0000000...° .

No matter how close to 75° you draw another meridian, I can always draw one

that's closer.

Answer 5

45 degrees west. To ask the question is to have already answered it.

Answer 6

All of them are. But the ones between 75° west and Zero°, and the ones

past that between Zero° and 105° east, can be reached sooner by traveling

eastward from 75° west.

Answer 7

That line is called the "meridian of 75 degrees west longitude".

Answer 8

All of them from 45 W to 180 are.

Answer 9

90`w

Answer 10
