Lines of latitude are parallel to the equator, and that includes the Arctic and Antarctic Circles. The Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn are also parallel to the equator.

part of the reason that such lines are often called "parallels" of latitude.

Do the longitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator?
No. Longitudinal lines run parallel to the Prime Meridian. Latitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator.
What are the imaginary parallel lines numbered in degrees around the north and south of the equator?
both latitide as horizontal and longitude as vertical
Is the equator a meridian or a parallel?
It is a parallel latitude Line it is the line that sepetates north and south
Every line of latitude is parallel to?
All parallels of latitude are parallel to the equator and to each other.
What is every line of latitude is parallel to?
equator.
What are lines that run parallel from the equator called?
There are no parallel lines that run FROM the equator. Lines that are parallel TO the equator are the latitudes.
What lines run parallel through the equator?
The only line that runs parallel through the equator is THE EQUATOR. [The Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn are parallel to the equator, but are north and south of it (respectively) at 23.5 degrees. So they do not run through the equator.] The lines of longitude all run through the equator, but they are not parallel to each other since they all meet up at both the North and South Poles.
Do the longitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator?
No. Longitudinal lines run parallel to the Prime Meridian. Latitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator.
What Lines of run parallel to the equator?
Lines of Latitude encircle the Earth, running parallel to the Equator.
What are the imaginary parallel lines numbered in degrees around the north and south of the equator?
both latitide as horizontal and longitude as vertical
Is the equator a meridian or a parallel?
It is a parallel latitude Line it is the line that sepetates north and south
Every line of latitude is parallel to?
All parallels of latitude are parallel to the equator and to each other.
What are the lines the run parallel to the equator?
Every line of constant latitude is parallel to the equator and to all other such lines. This might be part of the reason that such lines are often referred to as "parallels" of latitude. Or that might be just a coincidence.
What is every line of latitude is parallel to?
equator.
What is the parallel line that circles the earth?
The parallel line that circles the Earth is the Equator. It is an imaginary line located at 0 degrees latitude that divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and Southern Hemisphere.
What are the lines that run parallel to the equator called?
Every line of constant latitude is parallel to the equator and to all other such lines. This might be part of the reason that such lines are often referred to as "parallels" of latitude. Or that might be just a coincidence.
Which line latitude and longitude parallel?
All lines of latitude are parallel with the equator.
