Is latitude the vertical line or horizontal?
Lines of latitude run east-west as circles parallel (or horizontal lines) to the equator. Latitude measures the angle in degrees north or south from the equator where the equator is located at 0 degrees.
What does a line of latitude mean?
The horizontal lines on a map or globe that indicate distance north or south of the Equator.
What are the names of the latitude lines that circle the north and south poles?
lines of latitude
Is the Lines of latitude are the horizontal lines that measure the distance north or south from the equator?
Yes, you've got the right idea, but they're only horizontal if you're holding your map the right way.
What lines measure the distance north and south of the equator?
Lines of latitude. Longitude is from Pole to Pole.

What are lines used to measure distance north and south of the equator?
The lines used to measure distances north and south of the equator are latitude lines. They include the equator (0 degrees latitude) and equidistant circles between the equator and the poles. Latitude lines represent the surface points having the same angle from the equator, and planes perpendicular to the Earth's north-south axis.
Imaginary lines used to measure distances north and south of the Equator are lines of?
Lines of latitude are imaginary lines used to measure distances north and south of the Equator or 0 degrees.
Lines of latitude measured north and south from the what?
equator
What are the lines that measure north and south on the globe?
The Equator.
What are the imaginary parallel lines numbered in degrees around the north and south of the equator?
both latitide as horizontal and longitude as vertical
Lines running parallel to the equator are called?
You have answered the question for yourself ; They are 'Latitudes''. Longitudes (Meridians) are lines that run North to South from the North Pole to the South Pole. Longitudes come to a point at the poles, but spread out to a maximum at the Equator.
