Where do lines of longitude converge (meet)?
-- All lines of longitude meet at the north and south poles. -- No two lines of latitude ever meet or cross each other. -- Every line of longitude crosses every line of latitude. -- Every line of latitude crosses every line of longitude. -- There are an infinite number of each kind, so there are an infinite number of places where a line of longitude crosses a line of latitude. (That's kind of the whole idea of the system.)
All lines of latitude meet at what line?
Lines of constant latitude are parallel. No two of them meet anywhere.All lines of constant latitude cross all lines of constant longitude.
Lines of longitude meet where?
Lines of longitude meet at the poles, both North and South. At the North Pole, all lines of longitude converge and meet at a single point. The same holds true for the South Pole, where lines of longitude also converge and meet at a single point.
Latitude lines are parallel?
Yes. Any two lines of constant latitude that you choose stay the same distance apart everywhere and never meet or cross. That's a big part of the reason that they're often called "parallels" of latitude.
Who far apart are the longitude lines?
Longitude lines are farthest apart at the equator, where the distance between them is about 69 miles (111 kilometers). As you move towards the poles, the longitude lines converge until they meet at the poles.

North Pole and South Pole line is longitude or latitude?
Both poles are noted as 90 degrees. At the poles, all lines of longitude meet. You could say that the poles, then, are indicated as 90 degrees of latitude, but since there is no longitude, latitude can be assumed.
All lines of latitude meet at what line?
Lines of constant latitude are parallel. No two of them meet anywhere.All lines of constant latitude cross all lines of constant longitude.
Meridians of what meet at the poles?
The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees N latitude. All lines of longitude converge at both poles. Also, the Prime Meridian and the International Date Line meet at the poles.
Lines of longitude meet where?
Lines of longitude meet at the poles, both North and South. At the North Pole, all lines of longitude converge and meet at a single point. The same holds true for the South Pole, where lines of longitude also converge and meet at a single point.
Why are the lines of longitude not parallel?
Parallel lines, by definition, cannot meet. The lines of longitude meet at the Poles.
Longitude lines meet at what?
The poles
Latitude lines are parallel?
Yes. Any two lines of constant latitude that you choose stay the same distance apart everywhere and never meet or cross. That's a big part of the reason that they're often called "parallels" of latitude.

Longitude lines are farthest apart at the equator, where the distance between them is about 69 miles (111 kilometers). As you move towards the poles, the longitude lines converge until they meet at the poles.
What lines meet at the poles?
The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees N latitude. All lines of longitude converge at both poles. The Prime Meridian and the International Date Line also meet at the poles.
Where do the meridians meet?
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.
What all meet at north and south poles?
The Lines of Longitude all meet at the Poles.
