Every line of constant longitude joins the north and south poles.

Therefore the length of every line of constant longitude is one half of the earth's polar circumference.

Why length of longitudes the same?

The length of longitudes is considered to be the same because all longitudes meet at the poles and form complete circles around the Earth. Each longitude line represents an imaginary half-circle that extends from one pole to the other, dividing the Earth horizontally into equal sections. This design ensures that each longitude line is the same length when measured on a globe or map.


Why are the lines of longitudes equal?

Lines of longitude converge at the poles. They are all great circles that intersect at the North and South Poles and are equidistant from each other. This convergence creates lines of longitude that are all equal in length.
