What else can I help you with?
Are latitude and longitude lines curve or straight?
Latitude lines are parallel straight lines that run east-west, while longitude lines are not parallel to each other and appear curved when projected onto a map. Longitude lines converge at the poles and are widest at the equator.
What are the curved lines?
Lines that is curved. E.G the outline of a circle.
Can curved lines form a vertex?
Yes. Sometimes it's good to think outside of the square. Lines of latitude on the Earth's surface are curved lines. They meet at two vertices which we call the North Pole and the South Pole. But even in Euclidean Geometry, the answer is yes. Consider a circle and a parabola. The point where they intersect is a vertex.
What is the curve line in the globe?
The curve line on a globe typically refers to the lines of latitude and longitude, which represent geographical coordinates. These lines are curved due to the spherical shape of the Earth, with lines of latitude running parallel to the equator and lines of longitude converging at the poles. This curvature helps accurately depict distances and angles on the Earth's surface. Additionally, great circles, which represent the shortest path between two points on a sphere, also appear as curved lines on a flat map or globe.
What are The lines that intercept latitude lines on a map Are lines of what?
The lines that intercept latitude lines are lines of longitude.
What is another name for an oval shape projection map?
A Robinson Projection Map - also called an orthophanic projection in which the lines of latitude are curved. It was created by a Canadian-born cartographer named Arthur Robinson (1915 - 2004). There is also a Mollweide projection - within an ellipse in which the lines of longitude are curved. That was devised by Karl Brandan Mollweide, a German from Wolfenbuttel (1774 - 1825).
Is Lines of latitude is parallel?
Lines of latitude run parallel to the Equator (which is zero latitude).
What lines are parallel to the equator?
lines of latitude
What are principal lines of latitude?
whats the principal lines of latitude
Do lines of latitude sometimes intersect?
No, lines of latitude do not intersect.
Are the lines of Capricorn and cancer lines of longitude or latitude?
latitude?
How are lines of latitude and lines of longitute alike?
lines of latitude and lines of longitude are the same because they just are.
