If two circles are drawn using the same centre, the two lines of the circles are parallel as they don't meet each other.
Two straight lines (think of railway tracks) are drawn next to each other, but never meet, they are parallel lines.

What distinguishes the northern parallels from the southern parallels?
an arrow pointing to the east
What are the opposite sides of a rectangle called?
parallels
Are all parallels equal?
Yes of course!
What lines of latittude are called?
Parallels of Latitude
The parallels above the equator are which direction?
north
Is latitude and parallels related?
Circles of latitude are also know as parallels.
Are circles of latitude and parallels of latitude the same?
Yes.
What parallel lines split the world?
"Parallels" or "Circles of Latitude".
Which parallels are not circles?
a cylinder
Is another name for a line of latitude?
Linesof latitude are also known as circles of latitude or parallels.
What are the invisible lines the form east-west circles around earth called?
You're thinking of 'parallels of constant latitude'.
Lines of latitude are also called what?
Parallels and meridians. Circles parallel to the Equator (lines running east and west) are parallels of latitude. They are used to measure degrees of latitude north or south of the Equator. Meridians of longitude are drawn from the North Pole to the South Pole and are at right angles to the Equator.
What are the total number of parallels at an interval of 5 degree?
-- Since you're asking for "parallels", we know that the discussion concerns latitude.-- The total extent of latitude on the Earth is 180 degrees.-- The north and south poles are degenerate "parallels", i.e. circles with zero radiusat 90 degrees north and south latitude.-- If we draw in all the rest of the parallels between the poles at intervals of5 degrees, we'll need to draw 35 of them.
What line of latitude is most important?
The most important line of latitude is the Equator. Other important parallels are the Arctic and Antarctic Circles and the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn.

What is another name for a line of a latitude?
They are sometimes called parallels. They are parallel to the equator, zero degrees latitude, and parallel to each other. They are all circles, except for the poles which are points.A parallel is another name for a line of latitude because all lines of latitude are parallel to each other.Graticule .parallels
What are the invisible lines that form east west circles around earth are callled what?
That could be a description of the parallels of latitude. They're not only invisible, they're also totally imaginary.
