Latitude lines go -------- (across) And Longitude goes | | | (up & down)
yes
across
Latitude lines are like bands across the Earth. They go from East to South.
They go up and down latitude lines go sideways
On a map, longitude lines go up and down, AKA vertically. Latitude lines are horizontal lines on a map.
the lines on the globe are called longitude and latitude lines the longitude lines go up and down while the latitude lines go left to right
Just try to remember Latitude lines go left to right" or "Lat Left"
Latitude go side to side and longitude do up and down
Isn't there a move in football called a "lateral" something or other ? Doesn't it havesomething to do with moving sideways across the field, rather than up and downthe field toward the goals ? If I'm right about that, you could use it to remember thatLATitude lines go across the map, just like the LATeral pass goes across the field.I first think of "LONGitude as being something LONG or tall (the lines running north and south, but not wide. The "wide" lines (latitude) are so wide they go around the earth, east and west.A simple answer:Instead of Latitude, remember it as "Ladder-tude". The steps on a ladder go across (left to right); that's why you can step on them. Lines of ladder-tude (latitude) are the lines that go from east to west. If you imagined yourself 'stepping up' on a globe, you would be stepping on the lines of latitude.
Lines of latitude go side to side or left and right. The line that determines lines of latitude is the equator. Latitude lines are expressed as being north or south of the equator. Latitude is Lateral. The same way as the horizon: Horizontal.
Horizontal is across. Vertical is up and down.
on an atlas you'll see lines across maps,the vetical lines are the longitude (east and west).the latitude will be the horizontal lines known as north and south.....Wrong way round. Longitude is north/south and latitude is east/west.
Longitude lines go vertically and latitude lines go horizontally.
Parallels are lines that go up and down the map, latitudes are lines that go across the map from side to side.
