no, east to west
The lines that run north and south "or long ways" are longitude lines. East and west are latitude lines.
Lines of latitude run east-west and measure north-south.
Latitude lines run east-west, but measure north and south. Longitude lines run north-south, but measure east and west.
North and South
Longitude
latitude runs East to west. Longitude runs north to south. In other words, the lines of latitude are measured in degrees north and south of the equator and lines of longitude are measured in degrees east and west of the prime meridian.
Meridians of longitude run north and south. Parallels of latitude run east and west.
Lines of latitude, also know as parallels, run east-west. They measure the angular distance north and south of the equator.
Lines of Latitude (parallels) run from the Equator (0 latitude) to both the north and to the south, ascending. The northern most latitude is 90° North, and the southern most latitude is 90° South.
Meridians of longitude run north and south. Parallels of latitude run east and west.
latitude runs North and South and longitude runs East to West
The imaginary parallel lines that run east-west are called lines of latitude. These lines measure the distance north or south of the equator and are used to establish the location of a place on the Earth's surface.
