Which two states are not within the continental United States?

Answer 1

Contiguous means that their borders are touching the continental US. Alaska and Hawaii do not touch the mainland.

Answer 2

Alaska and Hawaii

Alaska: it became a state on January 3, 1959. Although Part of the North American Land Mass, it is not considered as part of the continental U.S.

Hawaii: it became a state on January 3, 1959. A series of islands in the Pacific Ocean, it is also not considered as part of the continental U.S.

Answer 3

The "contiguous" states are the ones that are directly connected to the other states, often referred to as the "lower 48".

The only TWO states that are not contiguous are Alaska (north and west of Canada) and Hawaii (an island chain in the tropical Pacific Ocean).

Answer 4

Hawaii and Alaska. Contiguous here means next to other states.

Answer 5

Hawaii and Alaska are not part of the land mass of the country of the US.

Answer 6

Hawaii is the ONLY state not within continental US.

( I think you may be confusing the words 'continental' and 'contiguous')
