The longest line of latitude is the equator (0°).
No, the equator circles the earth at its widest point
The Equator divides the Earth into northern and southern hemispheres based on latitude. It is located at 0 degrees latitude and circles the Earth at its widest point. Areas that lie north of the Equator are in the Northern Hemisphere, while areas south of it are in the Southern Hemisphere.
Houses in general look the same all over the world, though in many tropical countries people live in shacks. Air conditioning and no chimneys/fireplaces are commonly found in houses near the equator.
Latitudinal lines run East West along the earth's surface. An easy trick to remember is thinking "lat is flat" therefore the lines are flat when you are looking at a globe or 2D map.Latitude lines can also be called "PARALLELS"
A Latitude/longitude can only be used to give ONE point/position on the planet Earth. The Ring of Fire is a line of volcanoes that circles the Pacific Ocean, it is not a point.
yes the imaginary line is the equator and it circles the globeat its widest point.
the Equator
The North and South Hemispheres are divided by the Equator, an imaginary line that circles the Earth at its widest point. The Equator is located at 0 degrees latitude and serves as the starting point for measuring latitude in both directions.
No, the equator circles the earth at its widest point
The Equator divides the Earth into northern and southern hemispheres based on latitude. It is located at 0 degrees latitude and circles the Earth at its widest point. Areas that lie north of the Equator are in the Northern Hemisphere, while areas south of it are in the Southern Hemisphere.
If a map or a globe has latitude 'lines' printed on it, they will point east-west.
Latitude and Longitude are used to point to exactly where you want to be
The equator is the imaginary line that divides the Earth at its widest point, marking 0 degrees latitude. The equator divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere.
The North Pole is the point farthest north on the globe, located at a latitude of 90 degrees north.
Houses in general look the same all over the world, though in many tropical countries people live in shacks. Air conditioning and no chimneys/fireplaces are commonly found in houses near the equator.
Every point on the equator meets that requirement.
