What is another word for line of longitude?
Those imaginary lines are often called 'meridians'.
What is the other name for line?
The imaginary semi-circular "lines" of constant longitude are "meridians". The imaginary full-circular "lines" of constant latitude are "parallels".
Which imaginary line the equator or the prime merdian runs all the way around the earth?
No. These are called lines of longitude or meridians, one of which is the Prime Meridian running through Grenwich, England (and other places, of course), considered to be 0º longitude, thereby marking the beginning point for all other lines of longitude.The equator, on the other hand, is an imaginary line circumnavigating (running around) the globe at a point halfway between the two poles - in other words, it is crossed by the meridians at right angles.The equator, therefore is a line of latitude from which the degrees north and south of all other lines of latitude are measured. The equator is 0º latitude.
Latitude is measured North and South of which imaginary line?
the equator
What do you call the imaginary line through earths poles?
Are you thinking og the meridians? The meridians are the lines you see on a map that conects the north and south pole and also those who determ longtitude
Why is the zero degree longitude known as the Prime Meridian while others are simply meridians?
All other meridians are defined by their angular distance (from 0 to 180 degrees) from the arbitrary "prime" meridian. Half are measured east and the other half measured west, so that 180 degrees east is the same line as 180 degrees west (which is where the International Date Line is centered).
What is the imaginairy line around the earth called?
the equator ========= There are many imaginary lines around the Earth. In fact, there are an infinite number of imaginary lines. The two main types of imaginary lines are parallels of latitude (of which the Equator is one) and meridians of longitude.
Longitude is measured north and south of what imaginary line?
The equator yall
What is the imaginary lines that run north and south over the North and South poles?
Lines of longitude or meridians The Prime Meridian is on one side of the Earth, and the International Date Line on the other side.
What is tge imaginary line that divides the world into east and west hemisphers?
The meridians of 0° and 180° longitude separate the eastern and western hemispheres.
What is the imaginary line that connect two poles?
The direct line across the Earth's or any astronomical body's diameter from pole to pole is its axis. The circumferential lines imagined on the surface are the Lines of Longitude.
What lines of longitude are measured east andwest of the what imaginary line?
prime meridian
