What imaginary lines are numbered in degrees north and south of the equator?
lines of latitude, also known as parallels
What is parallel of latitudes?
It is a set of imaginary lines on the surface of the Earth which parallel to the equator. They go from 90 degrees N, at the North Pole, to 0 degrees at the equator, to 90 deg S at the South Pole.
Is the Equator a parallel or a meridian?
The equator is a parallel. Meridians are imaginary semi-circles that connect the north and south poles. "Parallels" are imaginary full circles around the Earth, and every point on a parallel is the same distance from a pole. The equator is the longest parallel. Every point on it is equal distances from both the north and south poles. The latitude of the equator is zero, and all other latitudes are measured from it. A parallel
What are the imaginary lines perpenticular to the equator?
The imaginary lines perpendicular to the equator are called longitudinal lines or longitude. The lines parallel to the equator are called latitudinal lines or latitude. Yes. they are.
The equator is an imaginary circle drawn around the earth that divides it into northern and southern hemispheres What are the imaginary lines called that are parallel to the equator?
false
Location north or south of the equator?
Measured by imaginary lines numbered in degrees
What imaginary lines are numbered in degrees north and south of the equator?
lines of latitude, also known as parallels
Is the Antarctic Circle north or soth of the equator?
The Antarctic Circle is the imaginary circle 66.5 degrees south of the equator and parallel to it.
What is an imaginary line that runs parallel to the equator and measures degrees and minutes in the northern hemisphere and southern hemisphere?
The parallels of lattitude
What is the word that means location north or south of the equator measured measured by imaginary lines Parallels numbered in degrees north or south?
greenwich meridian
What parallel are you in?
Parallel refers to the longitude where you live. Longitudes are the imaginary lines ruled around the globe by map makers starting at the equator, zero longitude, to 90 degrees at the poles. The 60th parallel refers to 60 degrees from the equator and passes through Europe and all points on that level around the globe.
What is parallel of latitudes?
It is a set of imaginary lines on the surface of the Earth which parallel to the equator. They go from 90 degrees N, at the North Pole, to 0 degrees at the equator, to 90 deg S at the South Pole.
What are parallel ines?
Parallel refers to the longitude where you live. Longitudes are the imaginary lines ruled around the globe by map makers starting at the equator, zero longitude, to 90 degrees at the poles. The 60th parallel refers to 60 degrees from the equator and passes through Europe and all points on that level around the globe.
What is at the intersection of the equator and the tropic of cancer?
There is no intersection. These two imaginary lines are parallel. Every point on the Tropic of Cancer is 23.5 degrees from the equator, no more and no less. The lines don't meet.
What are the imaginary lines perpendicular to the equator called?
Longitudinal or longitude lines are the imaginary lines that are perpendicular to the equator. Latitudinal or latitude lines are parallel to the equator.
What is the 49th parallel?
The 49th parallel north is a latitudinal circle on the Earth that is 49 degrees above the Earth's equator. This imaginary line is used as the border between the United States and Canada.
Is the Equator a parallel or a meridian?
The equator is a parallel. Meridians are imaginary semi-circles that connect the north and south poles. "Parallels" are imaginary full circles around the Earth, and every point on a parallel is the same distance from a pole. The equator is the longest parallel. Every point on it is equal distances from both the north and south poles. The latitude of the equator is zero, and all other latitudes are measured from it. A parallel
