North-south, pole to pole
Longitude lines run from pole to pole.
Lines of longitude run North-South.
east-west
Latitude: East-west Longitude: North-south
Lines of longitude run north-south and measure east-west.
Lines of longitude are also known as meridians. They run north-south and measure east-west.
Lines that run up and down on a map are called "longitude lines" or "meridians." These lines help indicate the east-west position or direction of a location on the Earth's surface.
on an atlas you'll see lines across maps,the vetical lines are the longitude (east and west).the latitude will be the horizontal lines known as north and south.....Wrong way round. Longitude is north/south and latitude is east/west.
Every meridian of constant longitude joins the north and south poles.
Each meridian of constant longitude is a semicircle that joins the Earth's north and south poles. They stay put.
Longitude is labeled from zero (at the Prime Meridian) to 180 degreesin each direction, east and west, from it.
All 'Meridians' converge at the Poles. No lines of Longitude do (they go 'around' the globe).
