What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the shape formed when two lines are drawn away from a single point?
That is called an angle.
What shape has 4 sides 1 pair of parallel sides with no equal angles?
A trapezoid can be drawn to fit the description, as a trapezoid is a quadrilateral with two sides parallel and two sides nonparallel.
Through a point not on the line exactly one line can be drawn parallel to the?
... given line. This is one version of Euclid's fifth postulate, also known as the Parallel Postulate. It is quite possible to construct consistent systems of geometry where this postulate is negated - either many parallel lines or none.
What postulate is not of euclidean geometry?
Euclidean Geometry is based on the premise that through any point there is only one line that can be drawn parallel to another line. It is based on the geometry of the Plane. There are basically two answers to your question: (i) Through any point there are NO lines that can be drawn parallel to a given line (e.g. the geometry on the Earth's surface, where a line is defined as a great circle. (Elliptic Geometry) (ii) Through any point, there is an INFINITE number of lines that can be drawn parallel of a given line. (I think this is referred to as Riemannian Geometry, but someone else needs to advise us on this) Both of these are fascinating topics to study.
How do you draw a quadrilateral with 1 pair of parallel sides?
A quadrilateral that is not a parallelogram (two sets of parallel sides) may be a trapezoid or a trapezium (US terms). To draw a trapezium (irregular quadrilateral), draw two parallel lines and connect them with unequal lines at non-congruent angles. If you make the angles opposite and congruent, you have drawn a trapezoid, which looks like a small stepstool with a top smaller than the base. If you make the connecting lines of equal length, you have drawn a trapezoid or parallelogram.
What are all lines of latitude drawn to be parallel from?
equator
What is parallel in geography?
In geography, "parallel" usually refers to lines of latitude that run parallel to the equator. These lines help in locating places on Earth's surface in relation to the equator. They are used to measure distances north or south of the equator.
The equator is an imaginary circle drawn around the earth that divides it into northern and southern hemispheres What are the imaginary lines called that are parallel to the equator?
false
How many lines of latitude are there when drawn at interval of 1 degree each?
If drawn on a globe at intervals of one degree, there would be 178 lines and two points.
How many parallels and meridians can be drawn on an globe at an interval of 10 degrees?
On a globe, there are 18 parallels (lines of latitude) that can be drawn at 10-degree intervals from the equator at 0° up to the poles at 90° north and 90° south. For meridians (lines of longitude), there are 36 that can be drawn at 10-degree intervals, ranging from 0° to 360°. Thus, in total, there are 54 lines (18 parallels and 36 meridians) on the globe at 10-degree intervals.
Which parallel of latitude are great circles?
All parallels of latitude, except for the Equator, are not great circles. Great circles are the largest circles that can be drawn on a sphere and pass through its center, whereas small circles do not pass through the center of the sphere.
What does parellel mean when you are talking about geography?
In geography, parallel refers to imaginary lines that run east-west around the Earth, also known as latitudes. These lines are equally spaced and measure the distance north or south of the equator. Each parallel is designated by a degree measurement.
Defintion of the Equator?
An imaginary line drawn around the earth equally distant from both poles, dividing the earth into northern and southern hemispheres and constituting the parallel of latitude 0°
Lines drawn parallel to the axes of the graph?
Lines drawn parallel to the axes have only one letter.y=5 is horizontal, parallel to the x-axisx=5 is vertical , parallel to the y-axis.
Is equator the orbit?
The equator is an imaginary line drawn around the Earth parallel to the equatorial plane. The orbit refers to the curved path that an object takes around another object, such as a planet orbiting the sun. So, the equator and an orbit are different concepts related to the Earth's rotation and celestial movements.
Lines of latitude are also called what?
Parallels and meridians. Circles parallel to the Equator (lines running east and west) are parallels of latitude. They are used to measure degrees of latitude north or south of the Equator. Meridians of longitude are drawn from the North Pole to the South Pole and are at right angles to the Equator.
Difference between latitude and lines of latitude?
A point on the earth's surface that's 19 degrees north of the equator has a latitude of 19 degrees north. There are an infinite number of points that are all 19 degrees north of the equator. If you mark a little tiny dot on the globe at a few thousand different points that are all 19 degrees north of the equator, they'll start to look like a solid line on the globe. That line is called the "19th parallel" of north latitude.
