Lines of latitude, also known as parallels, indicate the distance north or south of the Equator, which is at 0 degrees latitude. They are measured in degrees, with the North Pole at 90 degrees North and the South Pole at 90 degrees South. These lines help in determining climate zones, time zones, and navigating geographically by providing a framework for locating positions on Earth.

What do latitude and longitude tell us?
The lines on a map or globe that go vertically and match with the lines of latitude to tell the exact pin points of a place.
What is the purpose of lines of longitude and latitude?
The function of latitude is to tell us far north south the equator we are. The function of longitude is to tell us east and west of the prime meridian we are.
What does longitude and latitude lines help us do?
Latitude and longitude are angles used to describe the location of any point on Earth. They are the 'address' of the point.
Do lines of latitude help us determine absolute location?
Yes, lines of latitude help determine absolute location by providing a measure of how far north or south a point is from the equator. Latitude lines run east-west and are usually expressed in degrees, allowing us to pinpoint a specific location on Earth's surface.
What does a map tell us?
Temperatures,rainfall,& air pressures. There ARE more things that a weather map tells us
What do latitude and longitude tell us?
The lines on a map or globe that go vertically and match with the lines of latitude to tell the exact pin points of a place.
What are lines of latitude A the equator B lines that go east or west around the globe or map C hemisphere?
The lines of latitude are lines that go east and west around the globe or map ,the equater us the line in the middle that separates north and south :)
What does topography tell us?
it is a shape of land, represented on a map by contour lines, hypsometric tints, and relief shading.
Which two line of latitude fall between the US on a Robinson projection map?
I Dont Know Why Don't You Tell Me? Luv Val T.
What do lines of longitude tell us on a map?
Lines of longitude tells us where we are in relation to the Prime Meridian, either to the west or east.For an exact position on Earth, both lines of latitude and longitude (in degrees plus minutes and seconds) are used.
What is the purpose of lines of longitude and latitude?
The function of latitude is to tell us far north south the equator we are. The function of longitude is to tell us east and west of the prime meridian we are.

Can you tell me how longitude and latitude help us find exact locations on a map, like a treasure hunt"?
Longitude and latitude are coordinates that help us pinpoint exact locations on a map. Longitude measures east-west position, while latitude measures north-south position. By using these coordinates, we can accurately locate places on a map, making it easier to find specific locations, like in a treasure hunt.
What latitudes are parallel?
All lines of latitude are parallel to each other. The equator is the line of latitude at 0 degrees. Lines of latitude in the northern hemisphere have a positive latitude or are designated with "N" for North. Likewise, lines latitude in the southern hemisphere have a negative latitude or are designated with "S" for South.For example, the continental US (not including Hawaii and Alaska) is contained within the lines of latitude at 25 N and 50 N.
What does the map tell you about the map?

The contiguous US falls between which two lines of latitude?
49°N and 24°31′15.02″N. In pertaining to the "Robinson Projection Map" the best answer is: between 30°N and 45°N.
