-- Most of the imaginary lines on the surface are parallels of latitude, meridians of longitude, political boundaries, and shipping routes. -- The imaginary lines through the center of the globe are the axis and diameters.
That meridian has no special name. If it's shown at all on a map or globe, it'll be labeled "60".
Parallels, as the name inplies, run parallel to each other in an east-west orientation. Meridians run through both poles, and so cannot be parallel.
Lines of longitude are also known as meridians. They run north-south and measure east-west.
That's the equator.
Name the two meridians east of the meridian on this map.
Those are meridians of constant longitude.
latitude and longitude are imaginary lines across earth which are used to navigate the latitude is how many degrees north or south of the equator you are your longitude is how many degrees east or west you are of Greenwich in London
80 degrees west, 60 degrees west, 40 degrees west
"Meridians" are the long lines on a globe or map that help pinpoint coordinates. Meridian lines are also called longitudinal lines.
