What the latitude and longitude of Antarctica?
The latitude of Antarctica is approximately 66 to 90 degrees South. All lines of longitude converge at the South Pole, so all lines of longitude pass through Antarctica. Antarctica is a continent covering 10% of the earth's surface -- about as large as USA and Mexico combined. Latitude and longitude imply specific locations, not general geographies.
How many parallel latitude lines are there on the world?
90
What are the lines of latitude for the north and south pole?
The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees N latitude. All lines of longitude converge at both poles.
How many lines of latitude in a hemisphere?
there are 180 degrees of latitudes 90 in each hemisphere 181 in total counting the equator
What parallels run from?
Lines of Latitude (parallels) run from the Equator (0 latitude) to both the north and to the south, ascending. The northern most latitude is 90° North, and the southern most latitude is 90° South.
What latitude is the south pole?
The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees N latitude. All lines of longitude converge at both poles.
Lines of latitude are 181 or 180?
There are a total of 181 lines of latitude, with 180 being the maximum number. This is due to the equator being considered a line of latitude, which makes it a total of 181 lines from the equator to the poles.
What is the largest number for a latitude lines?
All latitudes are between 90 degrees south and 90 degrees north. No latitude is greater than 90 degrees in either direction.
What are the latitude lines of the earth's poles?
The latitude of both poles is 90 degrees either side of the Equator.North Pole is 90 degrees North.South Pole is 90 degrees South.
What imaginary lines are numbered in degrees north and south of the equator?
Lines of latitude, also known as parallels, are numbered in degrees north and south of the equator. The equator itself is 0 degrees latitude, while the North Pole is 90 degrees north latitude and the South Pole is 90 degrees south latitude.
Why latitude-180 while 360 lines length why this number?
The maximum latitude is 90 degrees, you cannot have 180 degrees latitude.
What are the geographical grid lines called that form 90 degree angles with the meridian?
The lines of LATITUDE run east-west around the globe and measure the angle north or south of the equator (which is 0° latitude). They are at 90° angles to the lines of LONGITUDE.
