Are parallels numbered 0 to 90 east and west?
No. Parallels of latitude mark angles north and south of the equator.\ if this is a true and false then false
Lines of latitude are also called what?
Parallels and meridians. Circles parallel to the Equator (lines running east and west) are parallels of latitude. They are used to measure degrees of latitude north or south of the Equator. Meridians of longitude are drawn from the North Pole to the South Pole and are at right angles to the Equator.
What imaginary lines are numbered in degrees north and south of the equator?
Lines of latitude, also known as parallels, are numbered in degrees north and south of the equator. The equator itself is 0 degrees latitude, while the North Pole is 90 degrees north latitude and the South Pole is 90 degrees south latitude.
Are parallels numbered from 0 to 90 degrees from east and west?
Parallels of north latitude range from 0° at the equator to 90° at the north pole, and parallels of south latitude range from 0° at the equator to 90° at the south pole. Saying that parallels could be numbered from 0 to 90° makes it sound like there are only 91 of them when in fact the distance between the poles can theoretically be subdivided infinitely.
Is the distance north and south of the equator it is noted by?
The distance north and south of the equator is measured in degrees of latitude. The equator is designated as 0° latitude, with measurements increasing to 90° north and 90° south.
Do parallels run east west or north south?
north to south
What are the lines north are south of the equator called?
"parallels" of latitude
Do parallels run from the north pole to the south pole?
Yes
What parallels run from?
Lines of Latitude (parallels) run from the Equator (0 latitude) to both the north and to the south, ascending. The northern most latitude is 90° North, and the southern most latitude is 90° South.
What lines run north and south on map?
Meridians of longitude run north and south. Parallels of latitude run east and west.
What are the two greatest numbers used for parallels?
It is 90degrees south and 90degrees north.
What is the starting point for numbering parallels on a map?
The numbering of parallels on a map begins at the Equator with zero degrees. Degrees ae counted away from the equator, both to the north and to the south. The north Ppole is 90 degrees north of the Equator and the South Pole is 90 degree south of the Equator.

What is the word that means location north or south of the equator measured measured by imaginary lines Parallels numbered in degrees north or south?
greenwich meridian
What parallels lies in between the tropic of cancer and the tropic of capicorn?
All parallels of every latitude 23.5 degrees or less, both north and south.
