Alaska. It extends beyond 180° west longitude into the eastern hemisphere. So technically Alaska is the northernmost, westernmost and easternmost state.
Alaska. (It's also the state with the easternmost longitude, since its Aleutian chain crosses the 180° meridian.)
Alaska is the westernmost state in the US.
The Aleutian Island chain of Alaska crosses the 180° meridian, the boundary between east and west longitude. So the farthest east longitude and farthest west longitude in the USA are both 180 degrees.
Alaska is actually the easternmost state in the US. Alaska is the northernmost, westernmost, and easternmost state in the US. It is easternmost because the Aleutian Islands extend past the 180 degree line of longitude, putting them in the Eastern hemisphere, which makes it the easternmost state in the United States. The easternmost of the lower 48 states is Maine.
Any line of longitude (or of latitude, for that matter), that crosses the United States, will divide it in two.
Hawaii is the westernmost US State but Guam is the westernmost US Territory.
Alaska is the easternmost state in the US. The Aleutian Islands are part of Alaska. Attu is the westernmost island in the Aleutian Islands of Alaska. The 180th meridian (the International Date Line) crosses the Aleutian Islands. Attu is on the opposite side of the 180° longitude line and is in the Eastern Hemisphere. Therefore Attu is the easternmost area in the U.S.
