The Tropic of Cancer is the line that joins all points on the earth whose latitude is 23.5 degrees north.ALL longitudes on earth have a point on the Tropic of Cancer.
Denver covers the range of latitude between about 39.57° to 39.79° North. All parallels within that range traverse the city. You would never ask a person "Which mark on the ruler is your height closest to ?" You simply ask him "How tall are you ?"
That would be the parallel labeled "66.5° North" on maps or globes where 0.5° lines are printed. It's also the approximate latitude of the Arctic Circle.
The 7th parallel is a common name meaning either 7 degrees north or south of the equator. It's a latitude line that circles the earth and you would normally say "7th parallel north" or "7th parallel south."
45 N latitude.The 45th Parallel is the midway point between the Equator and the North Pole... but the true halfway point is actually 16.2 kilometers (10.1 miles) north of the 45th parallel because the Earth is oblate.
That would be latitude or longitude.
The starting point would be the equator. Lines of latitude run parallel to the equator.
That would appear to be Great Salt Lake in Utah.
Lines of Latitude are parallel with each other and circle the globe east and west. Parallel refers to the relationship of two lines and really has nothing to do with direction. Parallel lines are two lines that would never meet even if extended to infinity.
-- At the maximum positive latitude, you would be at the north pole. -- At the maximum negative latitude, you would be at the south pole.
That would be the "parallel of 23.5° south latitude". The Tropic of Capricorn is also not far from there.
The 38th parallel north formed the border between North and South Koreaprior to the Korean War, which would make it the southern border of North Korea.
