Latitude.
It may be helpful to think of a ladder when trying to remember this, as Ladder sounds similar to latitude, and ladders have many horizontal bars.

The longitude lines cover the vertical side of the earth and the latitude lines cover the horizontal side. This gives you map coordination's.
Well, honey, those horizontal lines on a map are called latitude lines. They run parallel to the equator and help you figure out how far north or south a location is. So next time you're lost, just remember to follow those sassy latitudes!
In map graphs, a vertical line is typically called a "longitude" line, while a horizontal line is referred to as a "latitude" line. Longitude lines run from the North Pole to the South Pole and measure distances east and west of the Prime Meridian. Latitude lines run parallel to the Equator and measure distances north and south of it. Together, these lines create a grid that helps in pinpointing locations on the Earth's surface.
Vertical first.

The horizontal lines are called latitudes and the vertical lines are called longitudes.
They are the horizontal lines on a map.
The imaginary lines running from north to south on a map are called longitude.
The longitude lines cover the vertical side of the earth and the latitude lines cover the horizontal side. This gives you map coordination's.
The line on the map is called the ratocoal.
The grid of vertical and horizontal lines on a map represents latitude and longitude coordinates that help in locating specific points on the map using a system of geographic coordinates. These lines intersect at regular intervals to form a grid that aids in navigation, measuring distances, and determining exact locations on Earth's surface.
On a map, longitude lines go up and down, AKA vertically. Latitude lines are horizontal lines on a map.
Well, honey, those horizontal lines on a map are called latitude lines. They run parallel to the equator and help you figure out how far north or south a location is. So next time you're lost, just remember to follow those sassy latitudes!
Lines that run up and down on a map are called "longitude lines" or "meridians." These lines help indicate the east-west position or direction of a location on the Earth's surface.
On a normal map or atlas they are vertical.
They are just figurative lines used for calculations when looking at maps they are called lines of latitude and lines of longitude they are not actually physically on the earth just theoretically there.
