What distances do longitudes mark?
Longitudes mark the distance east or west of the Prime Meridian, which is 0 degrees longitude. They help determine locations on the Earth's surface and are measured in degrees from 0 to 180 degrees east and west.
What does longitude do?
It tells you how far east or west you are from an imaginary line that runs from the north pole to the south pole and that passes through Greenwich, near London, England. You get up to 180 degrees east and 180 degrees west. Sydney in Australia is 151° East.
What is the range if numbers along the lines of longitude?
I've been wondering that I think it is 180 degrees because the smallest is 0 degrees, and the largest, 180 I'm not sure it's like that in math but in social studies I don't really know try this though.
Is east 180 degrees from west?
The zero line of longitude is a matter of convention; it was established by the British Royal Navy as a convenient measuring point from the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, England (a suburb of London). Locations to the east of Greenwich are in the "east longitude", while locations to the west were in "west longitude". On the other side of the world, in the Pacific Ocean, you can sail from 179 degrees 59 minutes west to 179 degrees 59 minutes east in about 5 minutes. At the 180 degree line, "east meets west".
