The lines that intersect latitude lines on a map are lines of what?

Answer 1

Lines of Latitude encircle the Earth horizontally, and are parallel to the Equator. Lines of Latitude are intercepted by Lines of Longitude. Lines of Longitude run vertically from the North Pole to the South Pole. The Prime Meridian is zero longitude and passes through the Greenwich Observatory, Greenwich, London, England.

Answer 2

The lines that intersect latitude lines on a map are lines of longitude. These lines run from the North Pole to the South Pole and help determine the east-west position of a location on the Earth's surface.

Answer 3

There are an infinite number of possible lines of latitude, and there are an infinite number

of possible lines of longitude. Every possible latitude line intersects every possible longitude

line, and every possible longitude line intersects every possible latitude line. Every one of

the infinite number of points on Earth is the intersection of one of each, and there is no

particular name for it.
