Explanation:

Latitude and Longitude

These lines are not actually on the planet, but are imaginary lines used to help us find our way around the curved surface of Earth. The imaginary lines circling the globe in an east-west direction are called the lines of latitude (or parallels, as they are parallel to the equator).

Lines of latitude are called parallels and in total there are 180 degrees of latitude. The distance between each degree of latitude is about 69 miles (110 kilometers).
