a) planar projection
B) cylindrical projection
So as to create a particular location on the grid where they intersect.
planar projection
Meridians of constant longitude cross parallels of constant latitude. Parallels of constant latitude cross meridians of constant longitude. At each intersection of a meridian and a parallel, the lines are perpendicular (form 90° angles).
You have answered the question for yourself ; They are 'Latitudes''. Longitudes (Meridians) are lines that run North to South from the North Pole to the South Pole. Longitudes come to a point at the poles, but spread out to a maximum at the Equator.
A meridian of longitude and a parallel of latitude are perpendicular at their intersection, forming a right angle.
The imaginary lines perpendicular to the equator are called longitudinal lines or longitude. The lines parallel to the equator are called latitudinal lines or latitude. Yes. they are.
Each 'meridian' is a line of constant longitude.
Every meridian of longitude is perpendicular to every parallel of latitude, and every parallel of latitude is perpendicular to every meridian of longitude.
Lines of Longitude
Parallel. Latitude and longitude are perpendicular.
Meridians of constant longitude cross parallels of constant latitude. Parallels of constant latitude cross meridians of constant longitude. At each intersection of a meridian and a parallel, the lines are perpendicular (form 90° angles).
Longitudinal or longitude lines are the imaginary lines that are perpendicular to the equator. Latitudinal or latitude lines are parallel to the equator.

Railway lines with sleepers? Lines of latitude crossed by a line of longitude?
Latitude lines are imaginary lines that are parallel to the equator to fix a position on earth (along with longitude lines which are imaginary lines perpendicular to the equator)
Longitude and latitude lines are perpendicular to each other. Most road intersections in major cities are set up in a grid, making the cross streets perpendicular.
The imaginary lines perpendicular to the equator are called longitudinal lines or longitude. The lines parallel to the equator are called latitudinal lines or latitude. Yes. they are.
