What is the imaginairy line around the earth called?
the equator ========= There are many imaginary lines around the Earth. In fact, there are an infinite number of imaginary lines. The two main types of imaginary lines are parallels of latitude (of which the Equator is one) and meridians of longitude.
Lines running parallel to the equator are called?
You have answered the question for yourself ; They are 'Latitudes''. Longitudes (Meridians) are lines that run North to South from the North Pole to the South Pole. Longitudes come to a point at the poles, but spread out to a maximum at the Equator.
