Meridians
These are known as lines of longitude or meridians
Imaginary lines that run north to south are known as lines of longitude. Longitude lines are the imaginary lines running through the Earth between the North and South Poles. They are arbitrary and used for reference so everyone can know where they are in the world. The lines running north and south are called "meridians" or "lines of longitude."
Lines of longitude, or meridians.
longitude lines?
The imaginary lines perpendicular to the equator are lines of longitude, also known as meridians. These lines run from the North Pole to the South Pole and help determine a location's east-west position on the Earth's surface. The prime meridian, located at 0 degrees longitude, is the starting point for measuring longitude.
The direct line across the Earth's or any astronomical body's diameter from pole to pole is its axis. The circumferential lines imagined on the surface are the Lines of Longitude.
Those lines are called longitude and latitude.
The equator and the lines of longitude.
Lines of longitude.
If you pick a longitude and mark a dot at every point on Earth with that longitude, the dots will form a line between the north and south poles. The imaginary line is called the "meridian" of that longitude.
Latitude lines are imaginary lines that are parallel to the equator to fix a position on earth (along with longitude lines which are imaginary lines perpendicular to the equator)
They r both imaginary lines
