Usually state lines are drawn as a dot dash dot line.
They are drawn on the earth as imaginary lines that run from east to west.
equator
If drawn on a globe at intervals of one degree, there would be 178 lines and two points.
lines of longitude are lines drawn north and south and measure east and west a famous line of longitude is the Prime meridian
On a globe, there are 18 parallels (lines of latitude) that can be drawn at 10-degree intervals from the equator at 0° up to the poles at 90° north and 90° south. For meridians (lines of longitude), there are 36 that can be drawn at 10-degree intervals, ranging from 0° to 360°. Thus, in total, there are 54 lines (18 parallels and 36 meridians) on the globe at 10-degree intervals.
of the state governments
State legislatures (typically approved by the governor)

Infinite lines can be drawn from a point
A square by definition has lines of symmetry. Therefore a square cannot be drawn without any lines of symmetry.
5 lines is symmetry
They are perpendicular lines
Through two given lines, there can be either zero, one, or infinitely many lines that can be drawn, depending on their relationship. If the two lines are parallel, no line can pass through both. If they intersect, exactly one line can be drawn through their intersection point. If they are coincident (the same line), then infinitely many lines can be drawn through them.
This diagram is an example. The bolded lines are the lines you should draw._________ __________|/////////////|////////////////||/////////////|////////////////||/////////////|////////////////||/////////////|////////////////||-----------|-------------|Note: The top solid lines should be drawn, and the dashed lines on the bottom would be drawn, also. The slashes are just filling.
The state that is often referred to as a rectangle is Colorado. Its borders are defined by straight lines, giving it a rectangular shape compared to many other states with more irregular boundaries. This distinctive shape is a result of the way state lines were drawn based on latitude and longitude.
