What is located at 180 degrees longitude?

Answer 1

It passes through Russian teritory twice (Wrangel Island and the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug) and Fiji, before passing through the Australian portion of Antarctica and ending at the south pole.

Answer 2

The 180 degrees longitude line is known as the International Date Line. It is an imaginary line that marks the change of one calendar day to the next. Traveling east across this line, you would move one day ahead, while traveling west across it would mean going one day back.

Answer 3

Its longitude is 180 degrees.

In the case of points on that particular meridian only, it's not necessary to specify

'east' or 'west' longitude, because it's both ... exactly half-way around the Earth

from the Prime Meridian in either direction.

Answer 4

The longitude of the 180th meridian is 180 degrees, both east and west. It's the meridian opposite the Prime Meridian.

The P.M. joins the north and south poles and passes through Greenwich, England. 180 joins the north and south poles, and splits the Pacific Ocean.

Meridians don't have latitude, since they pass through every latitude. If you name a longitude and a latitude, then you've narrowed it down to a single point, not a line.

Answer 5

The 180° meridian. It need not be identified as east or west longitude,

because it's 180° from the Prime Meridian in eitherdirection.

("The International Dateline" is not a correct answer to this question.)

Answer 6

90 degrees north latitude is the north pole. 90 degrees south latitude is the south

pole. There is no such thing as a latitude greater than 90 degrees in either direction.

Answer 7

Exactly the same line as 180° westlongitude ... a line between the

north and south poles straight through the Pacific Ocean.

Answer 8

The same meridian of longitude ... exactly half-way around the Earth
from the Prime Meridian in either direction.

Answer 9

the international date line
