Yes, a diameter is a line that goes between two points on the circumference of a circle and passes through the center point.
The shortest path is a line perpendicular to the given line that passes through the given point.
A midpoint is a point. It's the point exactly halfway between the endsof a line segment.A perpendicular bisector is a line. It's the line that passes through themidpoint of the segment, and is perpendicular to the segment.
International date line
Any line that is not parallel to the given lines. The transversal that contains the shortest distance between the two parallel lines, is perpendicular to them.
The Diomonde Islands. Little Diomonde is in Alaska and 2.4 miles away is Big Diomonde Island in Russia with the International Border and the International Date Line lying halfway between the two.
Little Diomede Island (Alaska) is 2.4 mile from Big Diomed (Russia) and the Maritime border and the International Dateline passes midway between the two making the distance between the two countries 1.2 miles apart.
Yes. It runs between Alaska and Russia, and goes straight down to Antarctica.
The International Date Line runs between Russia and Alaska. The Eastern Hemisphere is a day ahead of the Western Hemisphere.
Every north latitude between 54.65 - 71.38 degrees, including the Arctic Circle, as well as every west longitude between 130.02 - 180 degrees and every east longitude between 172.45 - 180 degrees, traverses the state of Alaska.
The Tropic of Cancer passes through the Hawaiian Islands. The Tropic of Cancer is at approximately 23 degrees 30 minutes N latitude and marks the point on the Earth's surface where the Sun is directly overhead at the Summer Solstice. It also marks the northernmost point of the Tropic Zone.
The only thing between Canada and Alaska is one very thin thin line.
It was the Oregon Territory, which included the present states of Oregon and Washington. In 1846 the dividing line between the US and Canada (British Columbia) was established by the Oregon Treaty, and in 1867 the US purchased Alaska from Russia.
Yes, a diameter is a line that goes between two points on the circumference of a circle and passes through the center point.
4,061 straight line miles. (6,535 km)
There are 6,081 kilometers (3,778 miles) between Anchorage, Alaska and Mexico City, Mexico on a straight line.
The International Date Line (IDL) passes through the middle of the Pacific Ocean, roughly following the 180° longitude but deviating to pass around some territories and island groups (Fiji, Tonga, Samoa, etc). The line deviates from a straight line to keep it from passing through countries such as the USA (Alaska), Russia (Wrangel Island and Chukchi Peninsula), or New Zealand, and island nations such as the Marshall Islands and the Aleutian Islands. This makes all of Russia territory to the west of the IDL and all of the USA to the east.
