Is a rhombus parallel?
Yes. A rhombus is parallel. Or also called a parallelogram. It's parallel because it is a quadrilateral with 4 parallel sides.
Where are the parallel sides of a polygon?
The parallel sides of a polygon are sides that are segments of parallel lines. A polygon need not have any parallel lines. A triangle, for example, is a polygon that cannot have parallel lines.
How many parallel sides does a square have?
A square has four parallel sides (two pairs of parallel sides).
Does a rectangle have parallel lines?
no parallel lines
If two lines are parallel to a third line then the two lines are parallel?
They are parallel to each other.
Which lines are parallel to each other on map?
The lines are parallel on the map are called Latitudes.
In which direction do parallel lines go on a map?
It depends on the scale of the map. On a map of the world or a continent, the parallel lines will generally go horizontally across the map - East to West. For a large scale map, showing a small country or a local area, the vertical lines (North - South) will also be shown as parallel.
Why was the Vietnam separation called 17th parallel?
It followed the 17th parallel of latitude on the map.
The intersecting parallel meridian lines in a globe or map?
Meridians are not parallel. Apart from that, what is the question?
The parralle lines ona map are lines of?
Parallel lines found on a map correspond to latitude.
What is parallel or lines of latitude location?
They are the horizontal lines on a map.
What lines on a map that run parallel to the Prime Meridian?
The only lines that can run parallel to the Prime Meridian on any map are other meridians of longitude, and the only map on which they can be printed parallel to it is a Mercator Projection. They are not really parallel to the Prime Meridian.
What is a map called that is drawn parallel?
A map that is drawn parallel to latitudes and longitudes is called a "Mercator projection." This type of map is designed to represent the Earth's surface as a flat, rectangular shape, with accurate shapes and directions but distorted sizes at the poles. It is commonly used for navigation purposes.
Every parallel on a map is the same length?
Usually NOT - because maps are a projection from a sphere to a plane. In a normal map, the further away from the equator you are, the more stretched out the map is.
Lines used to locate palces on a map which are parallel to the equator?
They are lines of latitude.
What map has parallel lines of latitude and longitude?
A map with parallel lines of latitude and longitude is known as a Mercator projection map. This type of map is often used for navigation purposes due to its representation of straight lines of latitude and longitude, making it easier to measure distances and plot courses. However, the Mercator projection distorts the size of landmasses, especially near the poles.
Is 120 degrees west longitude parallel to the prime meridian?
Meridians are not parallel. They join at the poles. Parallels of latitude is a common phrase. Meridians of longitude look parallel on the the map, but they're not on the globe.
