The lines that meet at the North and South Poles are called meridians of longitude. These lines run from the North Pole to the South Pole and are used to measure how far east or west a location is from the Prime Meridian.
Meridians of longitude; parallels of latitude. Remember that meridians are all the same length (20,000 km) and that they meet at the poles. Parallels are, well, parallel, and are different lengths, the longest being the Equator.
By definition, a line of longitude is an imaginary great circle on the surface of the earth passing through the north and south poles at right angles to the equator such that "all points on the same meridian have the same longitude".Therefore, all lines of longitude meet at a point at each of the poles.
Each pair of meridians form a continuous loop around the Earth and meet at the poles. The Prime Meridian and the International Date Line are the two most common pairs of meridians used for navigation and timekeeping.
True. Longitude lines, which are also known as meridians, converge at the North and South Poles. This means that as you move towards the poles, the distance between the longitude lines decreases until they meet at a single point at each pole.
The meridians meet at the poles, which are the points on Earth's surface where the lines of longitude converge. At the North Pole, all lines of longitude meet, and the same is true for the South Pole.
All of them
All of them do.
Longitude at the poles is irrelevant. All of the meridians meet at the poles.
All meridians of longitude converge (meet) at the north and south poles.
All meridians of longitude converge at the north and south poles.
Those are "meridians of longitude".
All meridians of longitude converge at the north and south poles.
All meridians of longitude converge at the north and south poles.
All meridians of longitude on the glob meet at the north and south poles.
