Grid
Lines that run up and down on a map are called "longitude lines" or "meridians." These lines help indicate the east-west position or direction of a location on the Earth's surface.
The lines that run up and down on a map are called longitude lines, while the lines that run from side to side are called latitude lines. Longitude lines measure the distance east or west of the Prime Meridian, while latitude lines measure the distance north or south of the Equator. Together, these lines form a grid system that helps in identifying specific locations on the Earth's surface.
Lines of latitude are used on a map or globe. They are the lines that run horizontally or left to right, while longitude lines run vertically or up and down.
The thin lines that run across a map are called longitude and latitude lines. Longitude lines run north to south, while latitude lines run east to west. These lines help in pinpointing specific locations on the Earth's surface.
It is called a grid system (or map coordinates), and is used to identify locations on the map. It is made of latitude and longitude lines. The latitude lines are also called parallels and they run west to east. Longitude lines, also known as meridians, run north to south.
The lines on a map that run north-south are called meridians of longitude, and the lines that run east-west are called parallels of latitude. These lines help to indicate the location and coordinates of different places on Earth.
Those lines are called lines of latitude. They are also known as parallels as they run parallel to the equator.
The lines on a map that form a grid system are called latitude and longitude lines. Latitude lines run horizontally and measure distance north and south of the equator, while longitude lines run vertically and measure distance east and west of the Prime Meridian.
Boxes
Meridians of longitude run north and south. Parallels of latitude run east and west.
The lines that run east and west are called latitude lines. The lines that run north and south are called longitude lines. Together, they form a grid that can be used to locate any point on the Earth.
The vertical lines on a map are called meridians. They represent lines of longitude, which measure the distance east or west of the Prime Meridian. Meridians run from the North Pole to the South Pole and are used to help determine geographic coordinates.
