There are no parallel lines that run FROM the equator. Lines that are parallel TO the equator are the latitudes.
_____ lines are parallel and run _____.
they are parallel lines.
Kites have no parallel sides.It can have either 2 parallel sides, or none at all.Well, the definition of paralell is that two lines that can run along each other and not run into each other. So if you look at a kite as you see it in cartoons, it would have no parallel lines because the the Bottom Lines hit each other and so do the top. The answer is no
Parallel lines run alongside each other at a fixed distance, neither converging nor diverging.
A rectangle is a type of parallelogram. A parallelogram by nature is a geometric shape where two sides are parallel to each other. Parallel lines run in the same direction with the same distance between them for their entire length. If the lines are extended to infinity, the lines will never intersect. A rectangle is composed of two sets of parallel lines. Two parallel lines make up the top and bottom and two parallel lines make up each side.
Lines of latitude
No. Longitudinal lines run parallel to the Prime Meridian. Latitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator.
Lines of Latitude encircle the Earth, running 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
Lines of latitude.
Lines of latitude run parallel to the Equator (which is zero latitude).
Lines of latitude circle the earth, parallel to the equator.
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.
Every line of constant latitude is parallel to the equator and to all other such lines. This might be part of the reason that such lines are often referred to as "parallels" of latitude. Or that might be just a coincidence.
Yes. That's a big part of the reason why the lines are often called "parallels".
both latitide as horizontal and longitude as vertical
The only line that runs parallel through the equator is THE EQUATOR. [The Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn are parallel to the equator, but are north and south of it (respectively) at 23.5 degrees. So they do not run through the equator.] The lines of longitude all run through the equator, but they are not parallel to each other since they all meet up at both the North and South Poles.
