A line of latitudes run east-west as circles parallel to the equator so only the northern-most and southern-most latitude would touch the pole. The north pole is located at 90 degrees north latitude, and the south pole at 90 degrees south latitude so only a single line of latitude (actually a point) is at each pole.
Longitude lines run north-south so each line runs from pole to pole. All lines of longitude (also called meridians) come together at the poles so each pole has every longitude.
Lines of latitude never touch. They travel eastward (or westward) all around the world, right back to where they started, and keep going. this is because they are paralell, and they always keep the same distance away from eachother Lines of longitude do touch; they run to and from the north and south poles, and meet at both poles.
86 to 89 degrees north and 60 degrees south latitude do not touch any land. 90 degrees north latitude is also included, but it is not a line of latitude.
yes ther is bt i cnt give you the actual latitude the latitude is just present below south america through(drake passage)
No 'line' of latitude ever touches any part of any other one, anywhere.
That's why they're often called 'parallels' of latiude.
Meridians of longitude all meet at the north and south poles.
Lines of latitude are called 'parallels', because no two of them ever touch.
Any line north of about 37.34° North, and any line south of about 34.83° South,
does not pass through Africa. There are an infinite number of possible ones.
No, but all longitudes do.
60th parallel south.
No.
No. Every line of constant latitude is parallel to all others. No two of them ever touch or cross.
Not quite. Lines of latitude are called parallels, and they never touch each other. The meridians are lines of longitude, and all of them converge at the poles.
That line has often been called the "Equator" in song and story, and on maps as well, too.
No
No. All of them do but two. The latitude lines at 90 degrees North and South actually coincide with the intersection of all longitudinal lines. So technically, because they coincide, they do not form any angle.
Every parallel of latitude crosses every meridian of longitude.
No two lines of constant latitude ever touch or cross each other. They are the same distance apart everywhere. That's why they're often referred to as "parallels" of latitude.
No. Every line of constant latitude is parallel to all others. No two of them ever touch or cross.
Lines of latitude are parallel to each other and never intersect because they are equidistant from the equator. As they run east-west around the globe, they maintain a consistent distance from each other, ensuring that they never touch or cross paths. This unique characteristic makes lines of latitude a useful reference point for determining locations on Earth's surface.
Yes but parallel lines wont ever touch.
Not quite. Lines of latitude are called parallels, and they never touch each other. The meridians are lines of longitude, and all of them converge at the poles.
That line has often been called the "Equator" in song and story, and on maps as well, too.
No
Yes, lines of latitude are parallel to each other and never meet. They run East-West around the Earth and are used to measure distance north or south of the equator.
No. All of them do but two. The latitude lines at 90 degrees North and South actually coincide with the intersection of all longitudinal lines. So technically, because they coincide, they do not form any angle.
No. There are an infinite number of them, and no two ever touch or cross.Every one of them is parallel to all of the others. That may be one of thereasons that they are often referred to as "parallels" of latitude.However, every parallel of latitude crosses every one of the infinite numberof meridians of longitude.
Lines of latitude are also called parallels because they are all parallel to each other. Any two lines of latitude you choose are the same distance apart everywhere, and no two lines of latitude ever cross. Latitude 36 degrees north is called the 36th parallel north
