Is longitude horizontal?

Lines of longitude are vertical but they measure horizontal distance(In degrees,not kilometers or miles)between Greenwich Mean Time(GMT) and you so the lines are vertical,not horizontal. However,longitude measures horizontal distance,not vertical distance.


When you graph the motion of an object you put what on the horizontal and the what on the vertical axis?

Why is the distance formula not needed to find the distance between two points that lie on a horizontal or a vertical line?

It is used, except that, because one set of coordinates are the same, the formula collapses into a simpler form.

The ratio of the vertical distance to the horizontal distance?

The ratio of the vertical distance to the horizontal distance is sometimes colloquially phrased as "rise over run"; the numerically calculated value is called "slope". Mathematically, slope can be thought of as the tangent (function) of the "angle of elevation".

What part of a vector are the horizontal and vertical parts of the vector?

Its either reality based (vertical is up-down, horizontal is ground distance) or it's purely arbitrary.


What is the horizontal distance formula?

The answer depends on the context: If you have a distance vector of magnitude V, that is inclined at an angle q to the horizontal, then the horizontal distance is V*cos(q).
