Answer 1

⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀ $\huge{\tt{\red{❥}\green{A}\purple{N}\pink{S}\blue{W}\orange{E}\red{R}}}$The Equator is another of the Earth's great circles. If you were to cut into the Earth right on its Equator, you'd have two equal halves: the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. The Equator is the only east-west line that is a great circle. All other parallels (lines of latitude) get smaller as you get near the poles.

Answer 2

Answer:

A Great Circle is any circle that circumnavigates the Earth and passes through the center of the Earth. A great circle always divides the Earth in half, thus the Equator is a great circle (but no other latitudes) and all lines of longitude are great circles
