Why do you think the international Date line is not a straight line?

Answers

Answered by areejhunzla14

The International Date Line (IDL) passes through the Pacific Ocean. It is an imaginary line, like longitudes and latitudes. ... To avoid any confusion of date, this line is drawn through where the sea lies and not land. Hence, the IDL is drawn in a zig-zag manner.

The international date line (IDL) passes in zigzag pattern following the 180° meredian to stop the variation of dates among the same country. Or in other words, to ensure that there is no variable dates within the same country, the IDL passes in zigzag pattern .
