ok easy its called the north of south poles(def/how: all those latitudes and longitudes of the globe[the lines that go up and down]are all straight but since the earth is round on a globe youl see then to curve and meet at once single point but theres two areas were they meet the north pole and south pole

Which lines on the globe all meet?

All meridians of longitude converge (meet) at the north pole and south pole.


What are the 2 places lines of longitude meet?

The poles.


Where do the line of longitude meet on a globe?

The lines of longitude, also known as meridians, meet at the Earth's poles. They converge at the North Pole and the South Pole, forming a continuous line of longitude.


What do you call the lines on a map or globe that meet at the north and south poles?

Meridians - or lines of longitude.


Are longitude lines parellel?

Technically speaking (in the strict mathematical sense) longitude lines are not parallel, for they do eventually meet. They meet not in one but in two places. I would say however, that they are parallel in the everyday, man-on-the-street sense.


What is the name for the line that meet at the north and south poles?

Those are "meridians of longitude".

Where do the 55th latitude and 55th longitude meet?

The 55th latitude and 55th longitude meet at the intersection point in the Pacific Ocean near the Alaska Peninsula, southwest of Alaska. This intersection represents the coordinates where the latitude and longitude lines cross each other.


What is the name of the exact spot where a degree of latitude and longitude meet?

It is called absolute location.


Which lines meet at the poles latitude or longitude?

longitude


Why lines of longitude on a globe get closer together toward the poles as illustrated below?

Lines of longitude, or meridians, converge as they approach the poles due to the Earth's spherical shape. While they are widest apart at the equator, where the Earth's circumference is greatest, they meet at the poles where the sphere tapers. This convergence reflects the geometry of a sphere, where the distance between lines of longitude decreases as one moves from the equator to the poles. Consequently, the spacing of degrees of longitude is not uniform across the globe.


Where do lines of longitude converge (meet)?

-- All lines of longitude meet at the north and south poles. -- No two lines of latitude ever meet or cross each other. -- Every line of longitude crosses every line of latitude. -- Every line of latitude crosses every line of longitude. -- There are an infinite number of each kind, so there are an infinite number of places where a line of longitude crosses a line of latitude. (That's kind of the whole idea of the system.)
