Answer 2

Answer:

prime merdian

Explanation:

The prime meridian is an imaginary line, dividing the Earth into two hemispheres, i.e., northern hemisphere and southern hemisphere.. From it, the measurement of the longitudes can be taken. It is also the reference point for global navigation.

All latitude west of this merdian is so many degrees West, and all points to the east are in degrees latitude East. Therefore, with the help of the merdian the locations are determined and also with respect to this location the IDL(International Date Line) are calculated.
