What is another name for a line of a latitude?
They are sometimes called parallels. They are parallel to the equator, zero degrees latitude, and parallel to each other. They are all circles, except for the poles which are points.A parallel is another name for a line of latitude because all lines of latitude are parallel to each other.Graticule .parallels
What is the tropic of cancer parallel to?
The Tropic of Cancer is a parallel, because it is one of the earths parallel lines.
What line run parallel to the equator?
Lines of latitude are parallel to the equator, and that includes the Arctic and Antarctic Circles. The Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn are also parallel to the equator.See the link below
What was the seventh parallel?
The 7th parallel is a common name meaning either 7 degrees north or south of the equator. It's a latitude line that circles the earth and you would normally say "7th parallel north" or "7th parallel south."
Is the Equator a parallel or a meridian?
The equator is a parallel. Meridians are imaginary semi-circles that connect the north and south poles. "Parallels" are imaginary full circles around the Earth, and every point on a parallel is the same distance from a pole. The equator is the longest parallel. Every point on it is equal distances from both the north and south poles. The latitude of the equator is zero, and all other latitudes are measured from it. A parallel
Can two circles be parallel?
The circles could be in 2 planes that are parallel to each other. Lines and planes can be parallel. Lines of latitude are examples of circles that are in parallel planes.
What parallel lines split the world?
"Parallels" or "Circles of Latitude".

Name the latitude that is truly a great circle?
The equator is the only parallel of latitude that's a great circle.In fact, it's the only locus of any constant coordinate that's a great circle,since the meridians of longitude are all semi-circles.

What parallel lines circles the planet?
I think it is lines of latitude. ___________my answer is the tropic of cancer and Capricorn
What is the tropic of cancer parallel to?
The Tropic of Cancer is a parallel, because it is one of the earths parallel lines.
What line is an imaginary line that circles the earth at 23.5o N latitude?
The imaginary line that circles the earth at 23.5o N is the Tropic of Cancer. This line is parallel with the equator.
Is the Tropic of Cancer a great circle?
No; neither of the tropics is a great circle. The only line of latitude that is a great circle is the equator. The arctic and antarctic circles are not great circles, either.
What line run parallel to the equator?
Lines of latitude are parallel to the equator, and that includes the Arctic and Antarctic Circles. The Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn are also parallel to the equator.See the link below
How many great circles could you draw that are parallel to the great circle shown in this figure?
zero
At what latitude do the Arctic and Antarctic circles meet?
They don't. The Arctic and Antarctic Circles are parallel. Each circle has only a single latitude. The first is at 66.5° north latitude, 23.5° from the north pole. The second is at 66.5° south latitude, 23.5° from the south pole. They're 133° apart everywhere, and never meet.
