Do lines of latitude ever meet?
They don't cross other latitude lines. They cross longitude lines.
How can you tell the difference between latitude lines and longitude lines?
Latitude lines run parallel to the equator and measure a location's distance north or south of the equator, while longitude lines run perpendicular to the equator and measure a location's distance east or west of the prime meridian. Latitude lines are represented by horizontal lines on maps, while longitude lines are represented by vertical lines.
What is the pattern of lines that circle the globe east-west and north-south called?
The pattern of lines that circle the globe east-west are called lines of latitude, while the lines that circle the globe north-south are called lines of longitude. Together, they form a grid system that helps in locating points on the Earth's surface.
Are latitude lines vertical or horizontal?
On a normal map or atlas they are vertical.
What if globes had only latitude lines or only longitude lines?
If globes only had latitude lines, it would be difficult to determine a location's east-west position. If globes only had longitude lines, it would be challenging to determine a location's north-south position. Both latitude and longitude lines are necessary for accurately pinpointing a location on the Earth's surface.
What country do the lines of 10S latitude and 20E longitude cross?
Angola
What country do the lines of 10 degrees north latitude 0 degrees longitude cross?
Ghana
Do lines of longitude cross lines of latitude?
They intersect, yes.
What country do the lines of 10 degrees south latitude and 20 degrees east longitude cross?
Anghola
In what country do the lines of 10 degrees south latitude and 20 degrees east longitude cross?
Anghola
What two special lines of latitude cross North America?
What 2 lines of latitude cross north American
What do we call the place where latitude and longitude lines cross?
The latitude and longitude of a place are known as its co-ordinates.
What angle do lines of longitude cross with lines of latitude?
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).
When lines of longitude and latitude cross they make a?
Lines of longitude and latitude cross each other and denote the absolute location of the area crossed by the coordinates. Each area on earth has it own absolute location.
Are latitude and longitude real lines that cross the Earth?
No, no more than border lines between states or naions.
In what country do the lines of 10 degrees north latitude 0 degrees longitude cross?
The country that 40°N crosses 40°E is Turkey.
Where do the 55th latitude and 55th longitude meet?
The 55th latitude and 55th longitude meet at the intersection point in the Pacific Ocean near the Alaska Peninsula, southwest of Alaska. This intersection represents the coordinates where the latitude and longitude lines cross each other.
