Question

what are parallels of latitude and meridians of longitude ?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Latitude is a measure of how far north or south somewhere is from the Equator; longitude is a measure of how far east or west it is from the Prime Meridian. Whilst lines (or parallels) of latitude all run parallel to the Equator, lines (or meridians) of longitude all converge at the Earth's North and South Poles.

Whilst lines (or parallels) of latitude all run parallel to the Equator, lines (or meridians) of longitude all converge at the Earth's North and South Poles. ... The north–south line passing through any particular point on the Earth's surface is known as the “local meridian”.
