What else can I help you with?
What are lines of latitutde?
Latitude lines are imaginary lines that are parallel to the equator to fix a position on earth (along with longitude lines which are imaginary lines perpendicular to the equator)
Does a rhombus have parallel and perpendicular sides?
It has parallel sides, but not perpendicular.
Why is it important to know the difference between parallel vs perpendicular?
perpendicular cross parallel do not
Is the cover of a book parallel or perpendicular?
Parallel
Is a line which intersects two parallel lines?
No they are perpendicular if the intersect at a right angle. + is perpendicular, = is parallel
Are lines of longitude parallel to the equator?
No, perpendicular.
What are the imaginary lines perpendicular to the equator called?
Longitudinal or longitude lines are the imaginary lines that are perpendicular to the equator. Latitudinal or latitude lines are parallel to the equator.
Why does the equator receives more of the suns energy?
The light at the equator hits the earth perpendicular to the surface to the earth. The further you are from the equator, the light comes in at an angle closer and closer to parallel. The closer to parallel the light comes in at, the more of it is reflected, so it receives less energy than the perpendicular light at the equator.
Do the longitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator?
No, the longitudinal lines run perpendicular to the Equator, from the North Pole to the South Pole. They converge at the poles and are farthest apart at the Equator.
What are lines of latitutde?
Latitude lines are imaginary lines that are parallel to the equator to fix a position on earth (along with longitude lines which are imaginary lines perpendicular to the equator)
Does a rhombus have parallel and perpendicular sides?
It has parallel sides, but not perpendicular.
Are parallel and perpendicular opposites?
Yes, parallel and perpendicular are opposites.
What is Perpendicular and Parallel?
Perpendicular is when two lines cross... Parallel is when two lines never meet.... _____________ _____________ = PARALLEL LINES If they cross they are perpendicular, if they don't, they are parallel.
Does perpendicular have parallel lines?
= parallel + perpendicular As such no, perpendicular lines do not naturally have parallel lines. However...connect the lines in the symbols below. ++ ++ And you'll have 4 perpendicular lines, and 4 parallel lines.
Are latitude lines parallel or perpendicular?
Parallel. Latitude and longitude are perpendicular.
Is a octagon parallel or perpendicular?
Perpendicular
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.
