The angle between the equator and the prime meridian is 90 degrees. The equator is an imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, while the prime meridian divides it into the Eastern and Western Hemispheres. Therefore, at the intersection of these two lines, the angle formed is a right angle.

How do you measure distance east and west of the prime meridian?

The longitude line measures the angle east or west of the prime meridian. If you want the actual distance you'd travel directly east or west until you hit the prime meridian, you must multiply this angle (converted to radians) by the radius of the earth, and then multiply by the cosine of the latitude angle, which gives the angle north or south of the equator.
