What are the lines on the globe that look like a checkerboard called?
the lines on the globe are called longitude and latitude lines the longitude lines go up and down while the latitude lines go left to right
Which directions does a Parallel go?
If you mean a 'parallel' of latitude on the earth, then it is a circle that proceeds east and west from any point on it. There can be any desired number of them, the only specification being that every point on the 'parallel' has the same geographic latitude. Since these are all curved lines, it's hard to say that they are parallel in the same sense as parallel straight lines on a flat surface. But the planes they lie in are all truly parallel planes.
Does parallel go left to right?
No, parallel lines are any two lines that are at the exact same distance apart for all their length, they will NEVER intersect. Their orientation can be left to right, up and down and any angle in between. Parallels of latitude, however, are concentric circles around the earth in the east west orientation, parallel to the equator.
What is located at 9 degrees north latitude and 80 degrees west longitude?
According to the question, the time at 90 degree East longitude is 11 am, and to reach 15 degree west longitude it will have to go 105 degrees east as first of all it will go to 0 degree and then 15 degree to reach 15 degree west longitude. visit our page: bharrathividyashram .org/about-us

What direction does latitude lines or meridian lines go?
East to west
Which line on the map divides east from west?
The lines that go east and west are longitude lines. The lines that go north and south are latitude lines.
Which way dose latitude go to?
Lines of latitude go side to side or left and right. The line that determines lines of latitude is the equator. Latitude lines are expressed as being north or south of the equator. Latitude is Lateral. The same way as the horizon: Horizontal.
What directions do latitude and longitude lines go into north or south east or west?
noth and east
What are lines of latitude A the equator B lines that go east or west around the globe or map C hemisphere?
The lines of latitude are lines that go east and west around the globe or map ,the equater us the line in the middle that separates north and south :)
What way does the lines of latitude go?
The lines of latitude go east to west (horizontal) but measure north to south. You can remember this by thinking "lat is flat"
How does lines of latitude run from east to west?
Latitude go side to side and longitude do up and down
How are latitude and longitude lines read?
Latitude lines go west and east of the prime meridian and longitude lines run north and south. hope that helps!
What is the imaginary line that circles the earth from west to east is?
Latitude and LongitudeLatitude is the lines that go from east to west, and longitude from north to south.
What lines drawn on maps help locate places?
Latitude lines are imaginary lines that run East to West but measure North to South on the Globe. I remember latitude is fatitude. Longitude lines go North to South but measure East to West. I remember it as LONGitude.
What direction do lines of longitude go?
on an atlas you'll see lines across maps,the vetical lines are the longitude (east and west).the latitude will be the horizontal lines known as north and south.....Wrong way round. Longitude is north/south and latitude is east/west.
What 2 names are given for the lines that go from east to west through the world?
latitude and equater
