What else can I help you with?
Lines running between the two poles are called as?
The lines running between the two poles are called meridians. These meridians are used in geographic coordinate systems to measure longitude and determine the angular distance east or west of the Prime Meridian (0 degrees longitude).
The two lines of longitude between which the western hemisphere lies?
The Prime Meridian and the Internation Date Line
How many named lines of longitude are there?
Two of them.
Where do the lines of longitude cross?
They cross at the two poles.
What are two uses of the lines of longitude?
equator and hemisphere
Do lines of longitude intersect at only two points?
Yes.
Geographic grids consist of what two lines?
Latitude and longitude
When moving north or south from the equator what does the lines of longitude do?
Any two lines of longitude you choose get closer togetheras they proceed from the equator to the poles.
Where do longitude and latitude lines meet?
Every point on Earth has a latitude and a longitude. No two points have the same set of two numbers.
What is the longitude and and latitude of the tropic of cancer?
The two tropics are lines of latitude at 23°26′13.0″ North and South of the Equator and they intersect all lines of longitude.
Why are latitude lines considered parallels and longitude lines are not?
Just like parallel lines on a flat surface, no two parallels of latitude ever meet.Just like non-parallel lines on a flat surface, any two meridians of longitude do meet.In fact, ALL meridians of longitude meet, at both the north and the south poles.
