Well, first of all, it's kind of difficult to say what it means for a line to be parallel to two points.
But it's probably safe to answer this question with "no", because all of the meridians
meet at the north and south poles. That is, the north and south poles are two points
that are on every meridian, and a point is never on anything that it's parallel to.
It should also be mentioned that no two meridians are parallel, and no meridian
is parallel to anything else.
What else can I help you with?
Are Meridians parallel?
Some maps are squashed and stretched in such a way that meridians of longitude appear to be parallel (Mercator projection, for example). But the truth is that on the globe, the meridians all converge at the poles, and so they're not parallel.
How are the meridians on the map different from the meridians on a globe?
Meridians on a globe get closer and eventually merge at the North and South Poles. On a map (a flat plane) the meridians are drawn parallel and there is distortion at the poles, most noticeable on a world map.
Term for meridians?
Meridians are lines of longitude that pass from the North to the South poles.
Meridians are lines of?
Meridians are lines of longitude that are drawn from the North to South poles.
Do meridians meat at the north and south poles?
Yes.
Where do the meridians meet?
The meridians meet at the poles, which are the points on Earth's surface where the lines of longitude converge. At the North Pole, all lines of longitude meet, and the same is true for the South Pole.
Do meridians run through the north and south poles?
Yes ;)
Where do all meridians meed?
All meridians of longitude converge (meet) at the north and south poles.
Why are lines of longitude are not parallel to each other why?
All meridians of longitude begin and end at the same two points ... the north and south poles. Although they all appear parallel to each other as they cross the equator, I guess it's more comfortable to say that they're not parallel, since they all intersect.
Why are meridians also called longitude?
longitude are lines that go from north poles to south poles just like longitude lines meridians are vertical and are form north to south u get it rite?
Which lines of longitude and latitude vary in length?
-- All meridians of longitude have the same length ... they all join the north and south poles. -- Each parallel of north latitude has the same length as the parallel at the equal south latitude, but no other one.
Lines of longitude meet at the?
All meridians of longitude converge at the north and south poles.
