YES!
The way you remember which is which ... Longitude has 'Long' in it. Lines of longitude are always the same length because they circle the Earth from Pole to Pole, the LONG way around.
Lines of Latitude on the other hand, circle the Earth getting progressively shorter the further North or South of the Equator they are.
What else can I help you with?
How do lines of latitude run in relation to the equator?
Lines of latitude circle the earth, parallel to the equator.
What are the imaginary lines that circle east and west around the earth?
The equator, or line of zero latitude, runs around the Earth at its widest point.
What are the imaginary parallel lines numbered in degrees around the north and south of the equator?
The imaginary parallel lines numbered in degrees around the north and south of the equator are called lines of latitude. The lines of latitude run east-west and are measured in degrees from 0° at the equator to 90° at the poles. They help in determining the location of a place on Earth's surface.
What are the four main lines of latitude?
Well there's the Arctic Circle, Antarctic Circle, Tropic of Cancer, Tropic of Capricorn and the Equator.
The equator is an imaginary circle drawn around the earth that divides it into northern and southern hemispheres What are the imaginary lines called that are parallel to the equator?
false
How do lines of latitude run in relation to the equator?
Lines of latitude circle the earth, parallel to the equator.
What are the lines that circle the earth parallel to the equator?
The lines that circle the Earth parallel to the equator are called latitude lines. They are measured in degrees north or south of the equator and help determine location and climate patterns on Earth.
What are the lines that circle the earth called?
I think its called the equator.
Lines of latitude that circle the earth in the same direction as the equator?
Yes. Lines of latitude run east-west. They are a measurement north or south of the equator.
What are the imaginary lines that circle east and west around the earth?
The equator, or line of zero latitude, runs around the Earth at its widest point.
What are the imaginary parallel lines numbered in degrees around the north and south of the equator?
The imaginary parallel lines numbered in degrees around the north and south of the equator are called lines of latitude. The lines of latitude run east-west and are measured in degrees from 0° at the equator to 90° at the poles. They help in determining the location of a place on Earth's surface.
Do lines of latitude sometimes intersect explain?
Lines of latitude encircle the earth, with the Great Circle being the Equator. Each line of latitude is parallel to each other, so will never intersect.
What are the four main lines of latitude?
Well there's the Arctic Circle, Antarctic Circle, Tropic of Cancer, Tropic of Capricorn and the Equator.
The equator is an imaginary circle drawn around the earth that divides it into northern and southern hemispheres What are the imaginary lines called that are parallel to the equator?
false
What are the circle line parallel to the equator called?
lines of latitude
What term indicate imaginary parallel lines that circle the earth?
The term that indicates imaginary parallel lines that circle the Earth is "latitude." Latitude lines, also known as parallels, run horizontally around the globe and are measured in degrees north or south of the Equator, which is at 0 degrees latitude. These lines help in identifying locations and navigating the Earth's surface.
What are earth's parallels called?
Earth's parallels are called lines of latitude. They are imaginary lines that run parallel to the equator and are used to measure the distance north or south of the equator in degrees.
