Latitude
The lines parallel to the equator are referred to as Lines of Latitude and are used to measure degrees above and below the equator. They are also called parallels and include the Arctic and Antarctic Circles and the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn; the equator is the longest line of latitude on the earthSee the link below
Lines of latitude run east-west as circles parallel (or horizontal lines) to the equator. Latitude measures the angle in degrees north or south from the equator where the equator is located at 0 degrees.

The equator is an imaginary line that runs east to west around the middle of the Earth, dividing it into northern and southern hemispheres.
Lines of latitude are called parallels which run east-west as circles parallel to the equator. There are 5 named lines of latitude called the Arctic Circle, Tropic of Cancer, Equator, Tropic of Capricorn, and Antarctic Circle from North to South, respectively.On the other hand, lines of longitude are called meridians.

Lines of latitude are any of the circles, called parallels, that are to the north or to the south of the equator and parallel to it. They are the lines on standard maps that go from east to west; right-left.It is an imaginary line around the Earth parallel to the equator.
There is no such place as "east of the equator". The equator circles the entire Earth from east to west.

The equator completely circles the Earth in the east/west direction,so there's no such place as 'east of the equator'.
The lines of latitude and longitude.
Lines of latitude run east-west as circles parallel (or horizontal lines) to the equator. Latitude measures the angle in degrees north or south from the equator where the equator is located at 0 degrees.
They are called lines of "latitude".

An invisible line that forms east-west circles around the Earth is called both parallel and line of latitude. An imaginary line that circles the earth from north to south is called both meridian and line of longitude.
