Any two lines of longitude you choose get closer together
as they proceed from the equator to the poles.

What are the horizontal lines that are read north or south or the equator?
longitude and latitude.
Is the longitude north or south of which imaginary line?
Latitude is measured north and south of the equator.
What lines measure the distance north and south of the equator?
Lines of latitude. Longitude is from Pole to Pole.
In which directions do lines of latitude and longitude run?
Latitude lines run east-west, but measure north and south. Longitude lines run north-south, but measure east and west.
What do the equator and the north pole have in common?
longitude lines they converge at the poles and are widest at the equator also the south pole
What are the Lines north and south of equator?
Lines of longitude's
What lines measure distances north or south of the equator?
Longitude
Imaginary lines used to measer distance north and sounth of the equator are lines of what?
it is longitude
Do all lines of longitude meet at the equator?
Each line of latitude (the ones parallel to the Equator) crosses each line of longitude (the north - south lines).
What are the horizontal lines that are read north or south or the equator?
longitude and latitude.
Is the longitude north or south of which imaginary line?
Latitude is measured north and south of the equator.
What lines measure the distance north and south of the equator?

What lines run north and south but are measured by how far a specific location is from the equator?
lines of longitude
In which directions do lines of latitude and longitude run?
Latitude lines run east-west, but measure north and south. Longitude lines run north-south, but measure east and west.
What do the equator and the north pole have in common?
longitude lines they converge at the poles and are widest at the equator also the south pole
What is longitude passes through equator?
Lines of Latitude run east and west (aka the Equator which is zero degrees latitude) and are measured north and south of the equator. Lines of longitude run north and south and are measured east and west from the Prime Meridian in Greenwhich, England.
How can you tell the difference between latitude lines and longitude lines?
Latitude lines run parallel to the equator and measure a location's distance north or south of the equator, while longitude lines run perpendicular to the equator and measure a location's distance east or west of the prime meridian. Latitude lines are represented by horizontal lines on maps, while longitude lines are represented by vertical lines.
