Answer
1. To say that parallels of latitudes lie parallel to the prime meridian is very wrong. The correct expression is that parallels of latitudes lie parallel to the equator .
2.All parallels of the latitude do not converge at the equator .
3.To say that parallels and meridians are imaginary lines is correct .Latitudes and longitudes are al imaginary lines but do exist.
4.It is wrong to say that the line is a north meridian since nothing has been specified .By this I mean it should have been 8 degrees 4 minutes east or 8degrees 4 minutes north .
5.Yes it is correct that meridians are parallel to each other .
