The International Date Line is generally at the 180 degree meridian of longitude. It is from the North Pole to the South Pole and passes through the Pacific Ocean. It does deviate somewhat in the north to keep Siberia on the same day as the rest of Russia and alters again to keep the Aleutian Islands on the same day as Alaska and the rest of North America. It also deviates south of the equator to keep some islands on the same day as New Zealand.
What else can I help you with?
What line of longitude is found opposite of prime meridian?
The International Date Line.
The international date line roughly follows?
The international date line roughly follows the 180° longitude line in the Pacific Ocean. When you cross this line from west to east, you advance one day, and when you cross from east to west, you go back one day.
Is the international date line a line of latitude?
No, the international date line is a line of longitude, not latitude.
Is the international date line palline or a meridan?
The International Date Line is an imaginary line that roughly follows the 180-degree meridian. It is not a "palline" but rather a geographic marker used to indicate where one calendar day ends and another begins.
Which imaginary line on earth surface closely follows 180 degree meridian?
The International Date Line closely follows the 180-degree meridian. It is an imaginary line that determines where one day ends and the next begins. When crossing the International Date Line from east to west, you 'lose' a day, and when crossing from west to east, you 'gain' a day.
What degree of longitude does the International Date Line follow?
Mainly the 180 degree line.
What degree is international date line?
180 degrees east/west longitude

No, the international date line is a line of longitude, not latitude.
What is the imaginary line agreed upon as the staring point for a day on the earth?
The International Date Line, which generally follows the 180 degree line of longitude. However, the International Date Line takes several jogs and swings east and west to keep island groups all in the same "date".
Is the international date line palline or a meridan?
The International Date Line is an imaginary line that roughly follows the 180-degree meridian. It is not a "palline" but rather a geographic marker used to indicate where one calendar day ends and another begins.
What is the curious feature of international date line?
no countries lies in international date line
What is the international date line and where is it?
This imaginary line of longitude is the 180 degree line of Longitude. It is on the opposite side of the planet to the Greenwich meridian. Thus when it is 12 o'clock mid day at Greenwich, it is midnight on the 180 degree line of longitude. As you will know midnight denotes the start of a new day (and therefore a new day's date) and this is why it is called the International date line. In reality the internationally agreed path of the International date line does not follow the 180 degree longitude line. This is because if it did some pacific island countries would find themselves in two days at once (most confusing!). The line therefore jiggles about a bit as is crosses the pacific.

What is imaginary line in the pacific ocean that separates days?

Which line of longitude is found opposite of the Prime Meridian?
The major line of longitude located at 180 degrees longitude is the International Date Line.
