Does lines of longitude cross lines of latitude at 45 degree angles?
Superwisher
On some projections it may look that way, but in reality, on a world map, the lines cross at perfect 90 degree angles.

What country do the lines of 10S latitude and 20E longitude cross?
Angola
What kinds of lines intersect and make 90 degree angles?
Perpendicular lines cross creating 90 degree angles. Examples would be intersections in city blocks or a cross.
What are two lines that cross to make 90 degree angles called?
They are perpendicular lines
What is an unperpendicular line?
A perpendicular line is two lines that look like a plus +. If they're not perpendicular, they don't cross with 90 degree angles.
How are perpendicular lines and intersecting lines are different?
Perpendicular lines are a specific kind of intersecting lines. Intersecting lines are any two lines that cross through each other. Depending on how they cross each other, they may make angles from 170 degrees to 1 degree. Perpendicular lines are specifically two straight lines that cross each other at right angles, so that they create angles that are 90 degrees.
What angle do lines of longitude cross with lines of latitude?
Meridians of constant longitude cross parallels of constant latitude. Parallels of constant latitude cross meridians of constant longitude. At each intersection of a meridian and a parallel, the lines are perpendicular (form 90° angles).
In what country does 40 degree North latitude cross 40 East longitude?
Turkey
What area do the 0 degree line of latitude and 0 degree line of longitude cross?
The point at which the equator (0° latitude) and the prime meridian (0° longitude) intersect has no real significane but it is in the Atlantic Ocean.
Where does the 0 degree line of latitude and the 0 degree line of longitude cross?
in the Gulf of Guinea, about 380 miles south of Accra, Ghana.
What do we call the place where latitude and longitude cross?
The latitude and longitude of a place are known as its co-ordinates.
What do we call the place where latitude and longitude lines cross?
The latitude and longitude of a place are known as its co-ordinates.
What is the latitude and longitude of the point of the equator and the international date line?
The point where they cross is zero latitude / 180° longitude.
When lines of longitude and latitude cross they make a?
Lines of longitude and latitude cross each other and denote the absolute location of the area crossed by the coordinates. Each area on earth has it own absolute location.
In what city does 21 degree north latitude cross 40 degree east longitude?
There is no city there; these coordinates are in a rural area about 30 miles south of Mecca, Saudi Arabia.
What two special lines of latitude cross North America?
