Lines of longitude run North to South, and are called meridians. They measure degrees East or West of the Prime Meridian. Lines of latitude run East to West, and are called latitudes. They measure degrees North or South of the Equator.
True. Declination is the angular difference between true north (the direction of the North Pole) and magnetic north (the direction a compass points towards).
The sum of variation and deviation. The angle of magnetic declination, or magnetic variation, is the angle between the local magnetic field lines with which a magnetic compass needle lines up and the direction of true north, the north axis point of Earth. In the U.S., that angle varies between 0 degrees and about 20 degrees and also varies over time.The difference between "true" north and "magnetic" north is called "magnetic variation", which is often abbreviated as "mag var".The north magnetic pole is in northern Canada, but is continually (although slowly) moving. Topographical or navigational maps are generally overprinted with "mag var" lines and the amount of correction.
Difference between Compass direction and True north.
The distance between lines of latitude is approximately 69 miles (111 kilometers) for each degree. Given that the distance between the 20 North and 40 North lines of latitude is 20 degrees, you can calculate the distance by multiplying 20 degrees by 69 miles, resulting in about 1,380 miles (2,220 kilometers).

What is the difference between North American and US?AnswerCanada.
The lines that run north and south "or long ways" are longitude lines. East and west are latitude lines.
Because the North is (was) closest to their supply lines (Red China).
the major economical difference between the north and the south is the north was based on manufacturing while south was agriculutural
Lines of longitude run North to South, and are called meridians. They measure degrees East or West of the Prime Meridian. Lines of latitude run East to West, and are called latitudes. They measure degrees North or South of the Equator.
The lines of longitude run up north and south and down from the poles. Lines of latitude run parallel North and South to the equator. I remember the difference between latitude and longitude because the lines of latitude look like the rungs of a ladder (geddit) as they go around the globe. JCF
The difference is that one is in south and one is in north..! The difference is that one is in south and one is in north..!
The Union, or the North, was able to maintain better supply lines during the Civil War. This was due to the fact that the Union had a larger supply of railroad lines, allowing supplies (such as arms, clothing, food, or soldiers) to be transported to the front more quickly.
The North Vietnamese were using these countries as supply lines
the difference between Egypt and north pole is that Egypt is hot and in the north pole it is cold.
North was Union, and South was Confederates.
