The Prime Meridian
The International Date Line
Name the two meridians east of the meridian on this map.
The center of Africa is between the Indian and Atlantic meridians.
the minimium distance between the two meridians is at the poles because all the meridians comerge at the poles
The center of Africa is between the Indian and Atlantic meridians.
Two meridians of longitude are parallel only at the points where they cross the equator, and nowhere else.
Two meridians can form a great circle when they are 180 degrees apart, as they represent opposite points on the Earth's surface. For example, the Prime Meridian at 0 degrees and the Antimeridian at 180 degrees are such meridians. Any two meridians that are 180 degrees apart will create a great circle, which is the largest circle that can be drawn on the surface of a sphere.

Of the twelve regular meridians, the yin meridians always flow up the body, and all the yang meridians always flow down.
Each pair of meridians form a continuous loop around the Earth and meet at the poles. The Prime Meridian and the International Date Line are the two most common pairs of meridians used for navigation and timekeeping.
meridians or lines of longitude
Meridians of longitude; parallels of latitude. Remember that meridians are all the same length (20,000 km) and that they meet at the poles. Parallels are, well, parallel, and are different lengths, the longest being the Equator.
Meridians are lines of longitude that pass from the North to the South poles.
