What are the lines on the globe that run north and south between the poles?
The lines that run north and south "or long ways" are longitude lines. East and west are latitude lines.
Which are used measure distances north or south of the equator?
lines of latitude
What are lines used to measure distance north and south of the equator?
The lines used to measure distances north and south of the equator are latitude lines. They include the equator (0 degrees latitude) and equidistant circles between the equator and the poles. Latitude lines represent the surface points having the same angle from the equator, and planes perpendicular to the Earth's north-south axis.
What lines measure the distance north and south of the equator?
Lines of latitude. Longitude is from Pole to Pole.
Do the lines of latitude measure the distance northsouthwesteast on the glob?
Latitude is the angle, measured north or south, between the equator and a place.
What imaginary lines are numbered in degrees north and south of the equator?
Lines of latitude, also known as parallels, are numbered in degrees north and south of the equator. The equator itself is 0 degrees latitude, while the North Pole is 90 degrees north latitude and the South Pole is 90 degrees south latitude.
Does latitude run north to south or east to west?
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.
What is the refernce line for latitude?
The lines of longitude run up north and south and down from the poles. Lines of latitude run parallel North and South to the equator. I remember the difference between latitude and longitude because the lines of latitude look like the rungs of a ladder (geddit) as they go around the globe. JCF
Lines of latitude measure the distance north and south of the?
Lines of latitude measure the distance north and south of the equator, which is the imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The equator is located at 0 degrees latitude.
What are lines of latitude and what do they measure?
The lines of latitude are the North and South lines on the globe. They measure the time changes there are in areas.
What distance North or south on a map can be measure?
