Answer 1

Answer:

pls mark me as brain list.

Explanation:

Longitude lines runs from North to south pole means a complete circles and hence covers 360 degrees and that is why there are 360 longitudes. ... Each section from equator to pole is 90 degrees and two poles have 2 quarters of circle/globe hence 90X2 180 lattitudes. adding the Equator it becomes 181 latitudes.

Answer 2

Answer:

longitude lines runs from north to south pole means a complete circles and hence covers 360 degrees and that is why there are 360 longitudes. ... Each section from equater to pole is 90 degrees and 2 poles have 2 quarters of circle/globe hence 90 into 2 i.e 180 latitudes, Adding the equator it becomes 181 latitudes
