No. All meridians of longitude converge (meet, come together) at the north pole and
at the south pole. If there's any other place where they're not all together, then they
can't be parallel. Everywhere else except at the poles, they spread all the way around
the Earth. So they're not parallel.
Every meridian of longitude is perpendicular to every parallel of latitude, and every parallel of latitude is perpendicular to every meridian of longitude.
because they merge at the poles... they seem to be parallel near the equtor region..n remenber parallel lines nver meet each other... n due to the shape of our earth these lines merge at poles...
On a global grid, lines that are not parallel include the lines of longitude, or meridians, which converge at the poles, and the lines of latitude, or parallels, which remain equidistant from each other. While lines of latitude are parallel to one another, the lines of longitude intersect at the poles and are therefore not parallel. This difference results in a spherical geometry where the spatial relationships between these lines are defined by the curvature of the Earth.
Yes No, lines of longitude are as parallel to each other as the earth is flat. All longitudes intersect at the north and south poles.
latitude lines is another name for parallels and longitude lines are called meridians
Parallel lines, by definition, cannot meet. The lines of longitude meet at the Poles.
Vertical lines parallel to the prime meridian are lines of longitude.
Longitude; not parallel
All 'lines' of latitude are parallel to all others.No meridian of longitude is parallel to any others.-- All 'lines' of latitude are parallel to all others.-- No meridian of longitude is parallel to any other one.
Every meridian of longitude is perpendicular to every parallel of latitude, and every parallel of latitude is perpendicular to every meridian of longitude.

No, perpendicular.
Parallel. Latitude and longitude are perpendicular.
Latitude lines are parallel but not longitude lines.
Lines of longitude.
