A Longitude line always runs from Pole to Pole which is the same distance anywhere on Earth. On the other hand, Latitude lines get shorter the farther North or South of the Equator they are.
The longitude lines are always the same distance from each other.
You may be thinking of the distance between lines of longitude. The length of the lines of latitude decrease because the Earth is round, so the length of the line is shorter at the poles than it is at the Equator. The distance between the lines of longitude is shorter as you move toward the poles, again, because the Earth is round. All lines of longitude are the same length.
It's longitude Longitude goes vertically from one point and down so it is always going to be the same distance...Latitude goes horizontally so it isn't the same distance. HOPE THIS HELPED!
Because The lines of Longitude cross over each other at the top of the world which makes them not parallel. Parallel: Lines that never cross or meet And always stay the same distance apart.
Every meridian of longitude has nominally the same length, because they all connect the same two points ... the north and south poles.
The longitude lines are always the same distance from each other.
Nominally, yes. The only variation is due to the Earth not being a perfect sphere.
The lines of longitude are all the same length. There is no longest line of longitude. Now, if you mean latitude, then that would be the equator.
They're all the same length, they converge at the poles.

londirtude is lond and latitude is fat Lines of longitude all run North/South and are all the same length.

-- All meridians of longitude have the same length ... they all join the north and south poles. -- Each parallel of north latitude has the same length as the parallel at the equal south latitude, but no other one.
All lines of longitude run from North pole to South pole, and are all the same length.
Parallel
If you mean the length of the day, yes - that is the same around the Earth. The Earth rotates as a rigid body. If by day length you mean hours of sunlight. On the same lines of latitude day length will be the same, but due to the wobble in the rotation of the earth, day length is different along lines of longitude.
