What else can I help you with?
What are the circular lines that run parallel to the equator?
Lines of latitude.
Are lines of latitude perpendicular parallel or intersecting?
Lines of latitude are horizontal and run parallel to the poles
What are parallels on a map?
Parallels are lines that run the same direction and are the always the same distance apart. On a map (and the Earth) the lines of latitude (measurement North and South of the equator) are parallel.
What lines run parallel through the equator?
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.
Which of the above terms indicates imaginary parallel lines that circle the earth?
The term that indicates imaginary parallel lines that circle the Earth is "latitude." Latitude lines run horizontally around the globe, measuring the distance north or south of the Equator. These lines are used in geographic coordinate systems to help locate positions on the Earth's surface.
Lines that run parallel to the equator are called?
Lines that run parallel to the equator are called latitude lines or parallels.
Is Lines of latitude is parallel?
Lines of latitude run parallel to the Equator (which is zero latitude).
How do lines of latitude run in relation to the equator?
Lines of latitude circle the earth, parallel to the equator.
What Lines of run parallel to the equator?
Lines of Latitude encircle the Earth, running parallel to the Equator.
What are the circular lines that run parallel to the equator?
Lines of latitude.
What line run 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 running parallel to the equator are called?
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.
Is latitude up or down?
Latitude lines run parallel to the equator.
Where are the global latitude lines?
Lines of Latitude run horizontally round the World and parallel to the Equator.
In which direction does a parellel or line of latitude run?
Latitude lines run from east to west, parallel to the equator. Longitudinal lines are perpendicular to latitude lines and run north to south.
What are the imaginary parallel lines numbered in degrees around the north and south of the equator?
The imaginary parallel lines numbered in degrees around the north and south of the equator are called lines of latitude. The lines of latitude run east-west and are measured in degrees from 0° at the equator to 90° at the poles. They help in determining the location of a place on Earth's surface.
Lines of latitude are horizontal or vertical?
They are parallel to the earth's equator. So if you consider the equator as being horizontal then they are horizontal.
