The parallel lines that run from east to west on a map show lines of longitude. Latitude specifies the north-south position of a point on the Earth's surface.

on the same parallel has the same latitude.

What are imaginary lines that run east and west?
Lines of Latitude
What is latitudinal lines?
The imaginary lines that run east to west.
What are the imaginary lnes that run east to west around earth called?
The imaginary lines that run around the earth in an east-west direction are lines of latitude or parallels.
Where are Lines of latitude?
They are drawn on the earth as imaginary lines that run from east to west.
What are the lines that circle the globe in east-west and north-south directions?
"Lines of Latitude" and "parallels" are both used. Please note that the "lines" are imaginary; you'll never see one on the ground. Just on a map.
What are imaginary east west parallel lines around the globe?
latitude
What are imaginary east-west parallel lines around the globe?
latitude
What imaginary parallel lines run east and west around the globe?
Lines of Latitude
Imaginary east west parallel lines around the globe?
Each of those is a locus of constant latitude.
What are the imaginary lines on a globe that run east to west and measure the distance north to south?
Those would be the 'parallels' of constant latitude.
What are the lines that measure east and west on the globe?
The lines that go east to west are longitudinal.
What are imaginary lines that run east and west?
Lines of Latitude
What is latitudinal lines?
The imaginary lines that run east to west.
Do the lines of measure the distance north and south or east and west on the globe?
The lines of latitude on a globe measure the distance east and west.
What is the lines of latitude and Meridian of longitude?
Lines of latitude run east-west around the Earth and are parallel to the equator. The equator is at 0° latitude, with lines increasing to 90°N at the North Pole and 90°S at the South Pole. Lines of longitude run from the North Pole to the South Pole and are used to measure east-west distance. The Prime Meridian is at 0° longitude and runs through Greenwich, England.
What lines drawn on maps help locate places?
Latitude lines are imaginary lines that run East to West but measure North to South on the Globe. I remember latitude is fatitude. Longitude lines go North to South but measure East to West. I remember it as LONGitude.
What are the imaginary lnes that run east to west around earth called?
The imaginary lines that run around the earth in an east-west direction are lines of latitude or parallels.
