Longitude measures left and right (east and west), and can be remembered from the word "long".
Latitude: Lines the run North and South but measure east and west.
The lines of latitude are the North and South lines on the globe. They measure the time changes there are in areas.
The Equator.
Lines of latitude are imaginary lines used to measure distances north and south of the Equator or 0 degrees.

Lines of latitude are imaginary lines that run parallel to the equator and form part of a grid used to describe where on the earth you are. They are often called parallels.
Lines of latitude measure the distance north and south of the equator, which is the imaginary line that divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The equator is located at 0 degrees latitude.
