Answer 2

Imaginary lines that run north to south are called longitudes.

• In order to locate exact positions of places on the earth and make communication easier, a coordinate system of longitudes and latitudes is used.
• Latitudes and longitudes are both imaginary lines running from east to west and north to south respectively.
• The longitude of a point on the Earth's surface is the angle formed to the east or the west of the prime meridian with another meridian that passes through the given point.
• The prime meridian is the reference meridian for all longitudes. The international prime meridian passes through Greenwich, London. It divides the earth into two equal hemispheres - eastern hemisphere and western hemisphere.
