Answer:

Meridians are perpendicular to every latitude. ... All the other longitudes are measured and named after the angle they make with respect to the center of the Earth from the intersection of the Meridian and the Equator. Since a sphere has 360 degrees, the Earth is divided into 360 longitudes.
