Why are all the lines of latitude labeled ''S'' and all the longitude lines labeled ''E''?
They're not. If 'S' and 'E' are the only labels you see, then you're only looking at
1/4 of the earth, or less.
For every south latitude, there's also a north latitude with the same number, and
for every east longitude, there's also a west longitude with the same number.
You should turn your globe, or turn to another page in your book of maps. A whole
new 3/4 of a world awaits you.

Why are all the lines of latitude labeled S and all the longitude lines labeled E on the map of Australia?
The labeling of latitude and longitude lines as S and E on a map of Australia is a common convention to indicate the direction in which the lines are measured. The S stands for southward measurement along the lines of latitude, while the E stands for eastward measurement along the lines of longitude. This convention is used to maintain consistency in map orientation and navigation.
Which one line is parallel latitude or longitude?
All 'lines' of latitude are parallel to all others.No meridian of longitude is parallel to any others.-- All 'lines' of latitude are parallel to all others.-- No meridian of longitude is parallel to any other one.
Which line latitude and longitude parallel?
All lines of latitude are parallel with the equator.
Do all lines of latitude and longitude intersect at right angles?
No. All of them do but two. The latitude lines at 90 degrees North and South actually coincide with the intersection of all longitudinal lines. So technically, because they coincide, they do not form any angle.
What is the latitude and longitude of 60th parallel s?
The 60th parallel South is a line of latitude crossing all lines of longitude.

What lies at the intersection of the longest lines of latitude and longitude?
All lines of longitude are equal. The longest line of latitude is the Equator.
What lines pass through 90 latitude?
All the lines of longitude.

Does the Pacific ocean pass through the longitude and latitude lines?
yes it does because on a map there are longitude and latitude lines all over the place so YES!
What is the longitude and and latitude of the tropic of cancer?
The two tropics are lines of latitude at 23°26′13.0″ North and South of the Equator and they intersect all lines of longitude.
What is the latitude and longitude of 60th parallel s?
The 60th parallel South is a line of latitude crossing all lines of longitude.
What projection shows all lines of latitude and longitude as straight lines?
The Mercator projection does that.
Why are all the longitude lines labeled e?
E stands for east. Half of the longitude lines are east, the other half are w for west.
