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?
There are 180 lines of latitude when drawn at intervals of 1 degree each, ranging from the equator at 0 degrees to the North Pole at 90 degrees North and the South Pole at 90 degrees South.
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?
Latitude is the angular distance north or south of the equator, measured in degrees. Lines of latitude are imaginary lines drawn parallel to the equator at various intervals to help locate positions on the Earth's surface. Latitude is the actual measurement, while lines of latitude are the lines that represent these measurements on maps and globes.
What is the equator and What is its degrees latitude?
The equator is the line made up of all the points on Earth that areequal distances from both the north and south poles.The equator is defined as the line of zero latitude.
