Lines of latitude, also know as parallels, run east-west. They measure the angular distance north and south of the equator.

Latitude: East-west Longitude: North-south
North and South.
Yes. Lines of latitude run east-west. They are a measurement north or south of the equator.
Latitude lines run from east to west, parallel to the equator. Longitudinal lines are perpendicular to latitude lines and run north to south.

Latitude lines run east-west, parallel to the equator, while meridian lines run north-south, converging at the poles.
They are sometimes called "parallels of latitude", or just "latitude lines". The east-west lines on the map measure the latitude in degrees north or south of the equator.

Lines of latitude run east and west (like rungs on a ladder) and meridians (lines of longitude) run north and south
on an atlas you'll see lines across maps,the vetical lines are the longitude (east and west).the latitude will be the horizontal lines known as north and south.....Wrong way round. Longitude is north/south and latitude is east/west.
Another name for latitude lines is parallels. These lines run parallel to the equator and are used to measure how far north or south a location is from the equator.
