At what longitude does the prime median and the International Date line meet?

The Prime Meridian is the line that marks all points at Zero longitude. The
International Dateline roughly follows the meridian of 180° longitude. Since
those two lines mark different longitudes, the only place where they can meet
would be a place where all longitudes come together. Fortunately, there are
two of those on Earth . . . the north and south poles.
They meet at 90° north latitude and at 90° south latitude.
