The angle is the name of the difference in direction between 1 line & another radiating from the same point. The measurement is in degrees. ( 360 degrees in a circle) Or the measurement may be meaured in Mils (6400 mils = a circle) 1 mil is the difference in distance (1 metre) in the circumferance of a circle 1 Km from the centre. The Royal Navy at one time used, I think, 32 points of the compass, NNW, ESE, 10 points to Starboard, Mr Christian ! etc. The angle, therefore, is the measurement of this difference in direction.
East and west distances can be measured using longitude lines, imaginary lines that connect the Earth's poles. The distance between any two longitudes is the greatest at the equator, and zero at the poles.
Lines that run north and south are called meridians of Longitude.They mark angles east and west of the prime meridian.Lines that run east and west are called parallels of Latitude.They mark angles and distances north and south of the equator.
Distance from the Equator is measured using lines of latitude. The Equator is designated as 0 degrees latitude, and distances are measured in degrees, minutes, and seconds north or south of the Equator.
The equator is the origin (the zero) of latitude.Latitude is measured in angles, not lines.
Lines of latitude and longitude are perpendicular because they represent different angles to the reference point of the Earth's center. Lines of latitude are parallel to the equator and represent distances north or south from it, while lines of longitude converge at the poles and represent distances east or west from the Prime Meridian. Their perpendicular relationship helps to pinpoint specific locations on the Earth's surface using a coordinate system.
No, two lines would not be parallel if the consecutive interior angles measured 108 degrees and 74 degrees. Consecutive interior angles on parallel lines are always congruent, meaning they have the same measure. Therefore, if the consecutive interior angles have different measures, the lines cannot be parallel.
East and west distances can be measured using longitude lines, imaginary lines that connect the Earth's poles. The distance between any two longitudes is the greatest at the equator, and zero at the poles.

It is perpendicular lines
Think about this: A straight angle makes 180 degrees, right? Straight lines, when measured by a compass, are also 180 degrees. So, yes, all straight angles are straight lines.
Lines that run north and south are called meridians of Longitude.They mark angles east and west of the prime meridian.Lines that run east and west are called parallels of Latitude.They mark angles and distances north and south of the equator.
yes
Distance from the Equator is measured using lines of latitude. The Equator is designated as 0 degrees latitude, and distances are measured in degrees, minutes, and seconds north or south of the Equator.
Vertical angles are equal in measure and are formed when two lines intersect. Complementary angles, on the other hand, add up to a total of 90 degrees. They are not directly related, but if two lines intersect and form vertical angles, then the angles adjacent to the vertical angles will be complementary.
Assume that all distances are measured along the appropriate perpendicular. There is no specific name for the locus since the locus can be two or one straight lines, depending upon the original two lines. If the two lines are intersecting then the locus is a pair of straight lines that bisect the two angles formed by the original lines. If the original two lines are parallel, then the locus is a line parallel to them and halfway between them.
The riddle describes a "pair of perpendicular lines." When two lines intersect at a right angle, they form a pair of right angles, and their lengths (or links) cannot be measured in a traditional sense since they extend infinitely in both directions.
The equator is the origin (the zero) of latitude.Latitude is measured in angles, not lines.
