Every meridian of longitude is perpendicular to every parallel of latitude, and every parallel of latitude is perpendicular to every meridian of longitude.
On some projections it may look that way, but in reality, on a world map, the lines cross at perfect 90 degree angles.
All lines of longitude are equal. The longest line of latitude is the Equator.
longitude
The longitude lines cover the vertical side of the earth and the latitude lines cover the horizontal side. This gives you map coordination's.

The latitude and longitude of a place are known as its co-ordinates.
Meridians of constant longitude cross parallels of constant latitude. Parallels of constant latitude cross meridians of constant longitude. At each intersection of a meridian and a parallel, the lines are perpendicular (form 90° angles).
Lines of longitude and latitude cross each other and denote the absolute location of the area crossed by the coordinates. Each area on earth has it own absolute location.
