The set of imaginary lines that are all parallel to the equator are the parallels of
latitude. Whether they're horizontal or not depends on how you hold your map.
Latitude is a series of imaginary lines running horizontally across a map to denote position north to south. Longitude is the lines running vertically to denote east west position. Prime meridian is the line running north south, passing through Greenwich, England and is 0 degrees longitude. Equator is the same but for latitude. A grid is a series of horizontal and vertical lines arranged so you can plot position on them easily and accurately.
Lines of latitude are the horizontal lines on a map that stretches from the east to the west. 0 degrees latitude is the equator. A specific latitude is supposed to be combined with a specific longitude to show a precise position on Earth.
Lines of latitude go side to side or left and right. The line that determines lines of latitude is the equator. Latitude lines are expressed as being north or south of the equator. Latitude is Lateral. The same way as the horizon: Horizontal.
The equator is the same age as the current shape of the earth.
It's longitude Longitude goes vertically from one point and down so it is always going to be the same distance...Latitude goes horizontally so it isn't the same distance. HOPE THIS HELPED!
lines of latitude are horizontal lines that form circles and that run in the same direction as the equator
Imaginary lines connecting places of the same latitude are known as parallels. These lines run parallel to the Equator and help in measuring distances on the Earth's surface horizontally.

Yes, in geography, all points along a parallel of latitude are indeed the same distance from the equator. This is because parallels are imaginary lines that run parallel to the equator, maintaining the same distance from it as they wrap around the Earth.

yes
Lines of latitude go side to side or left and right. The line that determines lines of latitude is the equator. Latitude lines are expressed as being north or south of the equator. Latitude is Lateral. The same way as the horizon: Horizontal.
Horizontal lines are straight curves that typically runs from left to right across the page, usually sharing the same y-coordinate. Horizontal lines are perpendicular to vertical lines.
Parallel lines are lines that, if extended, would never intersect with eachother. This means that they are going in the same direction, eg. | |, but not | \. Horizontal means that that are going across, eg. ___________________, not |. An example of a lines that are parallel and horizontal: _____________________________________ _____________________________________
Imaginary limes are sweet and tangy. =DBut imaginary lines on the other hand refer to lines of latitude and longitude. The 'beginning' latitude line is the equator, which is at 0 degrees and runs east-west around the middle of the earth.The 'beginning' longitude line is the Prime Meridian, which is at zero degrees and runs north-south between the poles and goes through Greenwich, England.Between the Prime Meridian and Equator are other lines that go in the same directions and have different degree names (30 degrees west, or 60 degrees north etc.) They're "imaginary" because of course there are no big lines running around the world, they're just for maps.
They are both imaginary lines which circle the earth!
The equator is the same age as the current shape of the earth.
