It has no opposite. The complimentary term is latitude.
The major line of longitude located at 180 degrees longitude is the International Date Line.
The line of longitude directly opposite 60 degrees west is 120 degrees east. Opposite longitudes are always 180 degrees apart on the globe.
The International Date Line.
Travelling all the way around the Earth from the the Prime Meridian (0°) takes you in a circle of 360°Therefore, at the exact opposite side of the Earth as the prime Meridian is 180°.Longitude is measure from 0° to 180° either East or West of Greenwich so it ends at 180°.
The point directly opposite 52°N 140°W is 52°S 40°E.
The major line of longitude located at 180 degrees longitude is the International Date Line.
The line of longitude directly opposite 60 degrees west is 120 degrees east. Opposite longitudes are always 180 degrees apart on the globe.
that's easy. Latitude!
by looking at the globe.
The Prime Meridian. Opposite Prime Meridian (180-degrees Longitude) is The International Date Lin.
The International Date Line.
International dateline. Zulu. 180 and 0 degrees longitude are the same figure on opposite sides of our world.
The meridian of 180° longitude (both ways, east or west)
When the sun is setting where you are, it is rising along the same shadow line between night and day but on the opposite side of the world. That includes the point on the earth directly opposite your location.If you know your global coordinates, to get the coordinates of the point opposite you on the globe...Change north latitude to south latitude or south latitude to north latitude (keep the same magnitude of the latitude).Change east longitude to west longitude or west longitude to east longitude.Subtract the magnitude of your longitude from 180°.
The major longitude is the Greenwich meridian. The other is the line of longitude on the opposite side of the earth - more or less the International Date Line. Except that it is not a straight pole-to-pole line.
Travelling all the way around the Earth from the the Prime Meridian (0°) takes you in a circle of 360°Therefore, at the exact opposite side of the Earth as the prime Meridian is 180°.Longitude is measure from 0° to 180° either East or West of Greenwich so it ends at 180°.
