The names of all the lines of longitude and latitude?

Answer 1

Latitude: north pole 90 degress north, south pole 90 degress south, arctic circle 66 degress north, antarctic cirlce 66 degrees south, tropic of cancer 23.5 degrees north, and the tropic of Capricorn 23.5 degrees south.

Longitude: prime meridian 0 degrees and the international date line 180 degrees

Answer 2

Even though all of them are imaginary, there are an infinite number of longitude lines,

and an infinite number of latitude lines, so it would probably take me most of the rest

of the afternoon to list them all.

Fortunately, you can list all of their names on your own, and I'm going to show you

how to do that, right now:

-- Pick any number between zero and 90, and tag it "north". It's now the name of a line of latitude.

-- Pick any number between zero and 90, and tag it "south". It's now the name of another line of latitude.

-- Pick any number between zero and 180, and tag it "east". It's now the name of a line of longitude.

-- Pick any number between zero and 180, and tag it "west". It's now the name of another line of longitude.

Note:

The numbers you choose don't have to be whole numbers. They can have any amount

of decimal places you want. "32.06942 north" and "32.06943 north" both count as

different latitudes ... almost 44 inches apart on the Earth, with plenty of room for a

lot more different latitudes in between those two. That's why there are an infinite

number of them.

Answer 3

The lines of longitude are called meridians, while the lines of latitude are called parallels.
