meridians meet at the poles
The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees N latitude. All lines of longitude converge at both poles. Also, the Prime Meridian and the International Date Line meet at the poles.
There are a total of 360 meridians on the Earth's surface, running from the North Pole to the South Pole. Each meridian is spaced 1 degree apart, helping to define longitudinal coordinates on maps and globes.
On a Mercator projection, meridians appear as straight, parallel lines running from top to bottom of the map, spaced evenly apart. This is because the Mercator projection is a cylindrical map projection that preserves straight lines of constant bearing, resulting in meridians being stretched vertically towards the poles.
There are 360 meridians in the world, as they are lines of longitude that divide the Earth into 360 degrees from the Prime Meridian at Greenwich, England.
The Prime Meridian is numbered zero degrees. Meridians, or lines of longitude, are numbered with increasing numbers of degrees both east and west of the Prime Meridian. On the opposite side of the world from the Prime Meridian is 90 degrees, which is also the International Date Line.
The meridians meet at 90 degrees South latitude -- the South Pole.
All of them
All of them do.
All meridians of longitude converge (meet) at the north and south poles.
No. One characteristic of parallels is that they never meet or intersect.But all of the meridians of longitude meet at both the north pole andthe south pole.
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.
All meridians of longitude converge (meet) at the north pole and south pole.
Longitude at the poles is irrelevant. All of the meridians meet at the poles.
Those are "meridians of longitude".
Those are "meridians of longitude".
yes
All meridians of longitude converge at the north and south poles.
