There's no standard set of "lines", and there's no particular word that describes the
intersection of a latitude and a longitude, since every one latitude intersects every
possible longitude on Earth, and vice-versa.
The crossing of a longitude 'line' and a latitude 'line', and their numbers, is exactly
how any one specific point on the Earth's surface is located and described.

∙ 8y agoNo, lines never meet and cross one another because they are parallel lines and parallel lines never meet or cross each other.
Wiki User
∙ 8y agoNo, lines of latitude, also called parallels, do not cross or meet.
Wiki User
∙ 8y agoIf you pick ANY latitude and ANY longitude, and then look for the place on Earth
where they cross, you'll find that they cross perpendicular, i.e. at a right angle.

What angle do lines of longitude cross with lines of latitude?
Meridians of constant longitude cross parallels of constant latitude. Parallels of constant latitude cross meridians of constant longitude. At each intersection of a meridian and a parallel, the lines are perpendicular (form 90° angles).
When lines of longitude and latitude cross they make a?
Lines of longitude and latitude cross each other and denote the absolute location of the area crossed by the coordinates. Each area on earth has it own absolute location.
What do we call the place where latitude and longitude lines cross?
The latitude and longitude of a place are known as its co-ordinates.
Are latitude lines called meridian?
Each 'meridian' is a line of constant longitude.
All lines of latitude meet at what line?
Lines of constant latitude are parallel. No two of them meet anywhere.All lines of constant latitude cross all lines of constant longitude.
Do lines of longitude cross lines of latitude?
They intersect, yes.
What two special lines of latitude cross North America?
What 2 lines of latitude cross north American
When lines of longitude and latitude cross they make a?

What do we call the place where latitude and longitude lines cross?
The latitude and longitude of a place are known as its co-ordinates.
Are the parallel lines on a globe called longitude or latitude lines?
Latitude.
Are latitude lines called meridian?
Each 'meridian' is a line of constant longitude.
What is the pattern of lines that circle the globe east-west and north-south called?
The pattern of lines that circle the globe east-west are called lines of latitude, while the lines that circle the globe north-south are called lines of longitude. Together, they form a grid system that helps in locating points on the Earth's surface.
In what country do the lines of 10n latitude 0 longitude cross?
The lines of 10°N latitude and 0° longitude cross in the country of Ghana, located in West Africa.
What are the lines of the globe called?
latitude and longitude
Do lines of latitude ever meet?
Yes, lines of latitude are parallel to each other and never meet. They run East-West around the Earth and are used to measure distance north or south of the equator.
All lines of latitude meet at what line?
Lines of constant latitude are parallel. No two of them meet anywhere.All lines of constant latitude cross all lines of constant longitude.
