Latitudes are parallel lines that run east-west around the Earth, maintaining a constant distance from each other. However, they are not of the same size because the circumference of the Earth decreases as one moves from the equator towards the poles. At the equator, the latitude lines are the longest, while the lines near the poles become shorter until they converge at the poles themselves. This geometric relationship results in parallel lines that vary in length.
What else can I help you with?
Parallel lines have the same?
Slope and some times size
What has 2 sides of parallel sides with 2 acute angles of the same size and 2 obtuse angles the same size?
a parallelogram
Does a rectangular prism has parallel sides?
yes it does, if it is a regular prism with the top and bottom the same size.
What shape quadrilateral have 2 pairs of parallel sides and have 2 acute angles of the same size and 2 obtuse angles of the same size?
Any parallelogram except a rectangle.
What has 2 pairs of parallel sides. They have 2 acute angles of the same size and 2 obtuse angles of the same size?
It is a parallelogram and if all 4 sides are equal then it is a rhombus
All areas north of the Arctic Circle are known as the what latitudes?
high latitudes
Why are longitudes parallel?
They aren't, latitudes are.
What are lines that run parallel from the equator called?
There are no parallel lines that run FROM the equator. Lines that are parallel TO the equator are the latitudes.
Do parallel liines lie on the same plane?
They usually do. But latitudes, which measure distances from the equator and which, on earth, are called the parallels of latitude, do not lie in a plane.
What has two parallel polygons that are the same size and shape?
Prism
Parallel lines have the same?
Slope and some times size
Why are latitudes concentric but longitudes meet at the poles?
Latitudes are parallel to the equator. Longitudes converge like elastics on a soccer ball.
What parallel of latitudes divides the India into two halves halves?
equator
Which lines are parallel to each other on map?
The lines are parallel on the map are called Latitudes.
Can two lines still be parallel even if there not the same size?
yes
What has 2 sides of parallel sides with 2 acute angles of the same size and 2 obtuse angles the same size?
a parallelogram
What quadrilateral has two pairs of parallel sides that are the same length and angles that are not the same size?
a trapizoid
