A line of longitude is an imaginary line that joins up a lot of points all with the same longitude. That means it starts at the north pole and goes south, all the way to the south pole, always with the same longitude. At every point it runs north and south.
There is a line of longitude for every possible longitude, so an infinite number of lines.
What else can I help you with?
Which directions do the lines of longitude measure?
East-West
What cardinal directions do longitude lines measure on the surface of earth?
north to south
What directions does longitude lines give?
They give east and west. You're welcome. :)
What are the lines that circle the globe in east-west and north-south directions?
"Lines of Latitude" and "parallels" are both used. Please note that the "lines" are imaginary; you'll never see one on the ground. Just on a map.
What colour is used for the lines of longitude?
The lines of longitude are represented in green on most maps and globes.
What is the lines that drawn in the norht-south directions?
longitude

What directions do latitude and longitude lines go into north or south east or west?
noth and east
What colour is used for the lines of longitude?
The lines of longitude are represented in green on most maps and globes.
What directions are latitude lines used?
Lines parallel to the equator.
What is the longitude's measurement?
Longitude lines are the North/South lines that separate the earth in 15 degree sections. They are used for navigation.
In which directions do lines of latitude and longitude run?
Latitude lines run east-west, but measure north and south. Longitude lines run north-south, but measure east and west.
In which directions do the lines of latitude and lines of longitude -used on maps and globes-run?
Longitude are the vertical lines, like the Greenwich Meridian, and latitude are the horizontal ones, like the Equator. I remember this as the Earth is fatter around the Equator, and squashed at the Poles, so the Longitude lines go the short way, which is opposite to the way you would think! 2c9dd5a9-a7f3-4ff1-9a12-e0799b48ab5b 1.03.01 2c9dd5a9-a7f3-4ff1-9a12-e0799b48ab5b 1.03.01
What is the logic behind lines of latitude and longitude?
Lines of latitude and longitude are imaginary lines used to locate points on the Earth's surface. Latitude lines run east-west and measure the distance north or south of the equator, while longitude lines run north-south and measure the distance east or west of the prime meridian (which runs through Greenwich, England). Together, these lines create a grid system that allows for precise navigation and location identification on Earth.
