How do you you rotate a figure 90 degrees clockwise about the origin?
To rotate a figure 90 degrees clockwise about the origin, simply swap the x and y coordinates of each point and then negate the new y-coordinate. This is equivalent to reflecting the figure over the line y = x and then over the y-axis.
The line measuring 0 degrees longitude is also called what?
prime meridian
What is the Imaginary line drawn from the North Pole through Greenwich England to the South Pole called?
You're talking about the Prime Meridian ... the imaginary line that defines the origin of longitude on Earth.But issue must be taken with your use of the terms "from" and "to". No meridian, including the Prime one, has a defined beginning or end point. They simply join the poles.
Where do the east and west lines of longitude meet?
At the Greenwich meridian, and the international date line.
What is the name of imaginary line of longitude that runs through greenwich England is called the?
Prime Meridian
What is the line of longitude used as origin in a system of coordinates?
A longitude is a line that circles the globe from north to south. Longitudes are used to specify a location in degrees from east to west on the globe. See picture above. If the picture hasn't been changed the lines (not the equator) are longitudinal lines.

What is the coordinates of a point on the number line?
the distance from the origin
How are the lines of latitude and longitude used to locate points on Earth's surface?
The lines of latitude provide vertical (north-south) coordinates on a map or globe. Lines of longitude provide horizontal (east-west) coordinates. The defined geographical point is where the latitude line intersects the longitude line.
How do you use latitude and longitude coordinates to find an absolute location on a map?
First, look on the map to find the line of latitude that the coordinates reference. If the exact line of latitude isn't shown on the map, estimate it by looking at the lines that are available. Then look on the map to find the longitude line that the coordinates reference. Once you have found the two lines, follow them both towards the point where they intersect. That is the location the coordinates reference.
Is the equator is a main line of longitude?
The equator is the origin for the lines of latitude
How do you figure the latitude and longitude of the moon?
The system of latitude and longitude is used to describe the location of points on the surface of the earth. Celestial objects don't have latitude and longitude. There is a similar system defined in the sky. Those coordinates are called Right Ascension and Declination.
What are the coordinates along the central meridian?
Well, let's see . . . . . A "meridian" is a line of constant longitude, so wherever you are on it, the longitude is always the same number. Also, a meridian of longitude is a line that stretches all the way between the north pole and the south pole, covering all possible latitudes. So the coordinates on the central meridian are: (Any latitude you want), and (The same longitude everywhere on it).
What is the longitude latitude of the New Madrid fault line?
36.5824° N, 89.5880° W New Madrid Seismic Zone, Coordinates
Does the prime meridian follow a specific line of latitude or longitude?
No. The Prime Meridian has several dips and bends.
What continents are crossed by the 15 degrees w longitude line?
Europe, Africa, and North America check on a map with coordinates
Is Warsaw east or west of the 20 degrees east line of longitude?
Coordinates given in WikiPedia indicate a longitude of 21 degrees east. This puts the point at which this coordinate is set east of the 20 degree line.
