Parallel lines run in the same direction. If they are intersected by one line and that line is perpendicular to both, then it proves that the lines run parallel to each other.
any direction they just run alongside each other
parallel lines. they run side by side but never intersect
Two lines that run in the same direction that will never cross or touch. the equal sign is an example ====
parallel lines.....
Latitudinal lines run East West along the earth's surface. An easy trick to remember is thinking "lat is flat" therefore the lines are flat when you are looking at a globe or 2D map.Latitude lines can also be called "PARALLELS"
Lines of Latitude
Parallels run east-west on the globe, parallel to the equator. They are lines of latitude that measure the distance north or south of the equator.
Latitude lines are the imaginary lines on a globe that are horizontal.
Parallel lines run in the same direction. If they are intersected by one line and that line is perpendicular to both, then it proves that the lines run parallel to each other.
Lines that run parallel on the Earth are called latitude lines. These lines measure the distance north or south of the Equator and help to identify locations on the globe.
The imaginary parallel lines that run around the globe are the lines of latitude. They are important for locating places on the Earth's surface and are measured in degrees north or south of the equator.
East to west. The north to south lines intersect at the poles.
Latitude lines run from east to west, parallel to the equator. Longitudinal lines are perpendicular to latitude lines and run north to south.
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.
In general, longitudinal lines run in the direction of the length (longer dimension) of a thing. On a globe or map representing Earth or another celestial object, longitudinal lines run north-south, from pole to pole. Because they meet at two points, they are neither parallel nor equidistant.
There are no parallel lines that run FROM the equator. Lines that are parallel TO the equator are the latitudes.
