Is the prime meridian at 0 degrees latitude 0 degree longitude or 180 degree latitude?
The prime meridian is a line at 0 degrees longitude.
What Longitude latitude equator and the prime meridian are all parts of?
Longitude, latitude, the equator, and the prime meridian are all components of the Earth's coordinate system, which is used for geographic定位. Longitude lines run vertically from the North Pole to the South Pole, while latitude lines run horizontally, measuring distance north or south of the equator. The equator is the zero-degree latitude line, and the prime meridian is the zero-degree longitude line, serving as reference points for navigation and mapping. Together, they help pinpoint locations on the Earth's surface.
Which is the Latitude and which the Longitude?
The one that measures the angle from the equator and is tagged 'north' or 'south' is the latitude. The one that measures the angle from the Prime Meridian and is tagged 'east' or 'west' is the longitude.
Where can we find the equator and the prime meridian?
they are
Where is B north latitude and A west longitude?

Is longitude north and south?
both .. longitude measures from north to south or from south to north the same with latitude.
How is the lines of latitude and longitude different?
The 'latitude' of a location is its angle north or south of the equator. The 'longitude' of a location is its angle east or west of the Prime Meridian.
Where is B north latitude and A west longitude?
It is B° north of the equator and A° west of the prime meridian.
How are the meridians of longitude drawn on the globe?
Each line of longitude extends from one pole to the other, perpendicular to the equator. Along each meridian, the equator is 0° latitude, the north pole is 90° north latitude, and the south pole is 90° south latitude. The prime meridian, which is the meridian that passes through Greenwich, England, is 0° longitude, and the international date line, directly opposite the prime meridian, is 180° east or west longitude.
What does latitude and longitude measure?
Location of a point on the surface of the earth.
What is meant by longitude latitude and meridian?
-- Longitude is the angle east or west between a point on the Earth's surface and the Prime Meridian. -- Latitude is the angle north or south between a point and the equator. -- A meridian is an imaginary line between the north and south poles and through all the points on Earth that have the same one single longitude.
