What else can I help you with?
What are the parallels and latitudes on maps?
Parallels are lines that go up and down the map, latitudes are lines that go across the map from side to side.
Which lines are parallel to each other on map?
The lines are parallel on the map are called Latitudes.
What are the imaginary lines on the globe and map?
The horizontal lines are called latitudes and the vertical lines are called longitudes.
On a polar projection the lines appear as?
On a polar projection, lines appear as straight lines that radiate outward from a central point (the pole). These lines represent constant latitudes, with the pole at the center of the map. The further away from the center, the greater the distortion in terms of shape and size.
How can one use the imaginary lines to locate a place on the map?
We draw equidistant horizontal and vertical lines at given intervals.We can label the lines longitudes and latitudes respectively
What occurs as the earths surface is created to create a map?
lines appear on the ground. A map is a representaion of the ground, you cannot make more ground appear by drawing a map.
Which group of terms describes lines on a map?
They could be: Latitudes and longitudes, Gridlines, Isobars, isotherms, contours, National or regional boundaries.
Which map is an equal area projection where latitudes are represented by parallel lines but longitudes are represented by ellipses?
The map you are referring to is likely the Mollweide projection. It is an equal-area projection that represents latitudes as straight parallel lines and longitudes as elliptical arcs. This projection aims to minimize distortion in terms of area, but distorts shapes and distances.
On a map or globe what is a set intersecting lines that appear at regular intervals?
grid
What is most likely not to appear on a map out of compass rose legend horizon latitude lines scale?
Lines of latitude do not appear on all types of maps, The other parts do appear on most maps.
On a map of average annual temperature why are the lower latitudes so much warmer than the higher latitudes?
On a map of average annual temperature why are the lower latitudes so much warmer than the higher latitudes?
Why are there 181 lines of latitudes?
90 north latitudes + 90 south latitudes + 1 line of equator
