Do the longitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator?
No, the longitudinal lines run perpendicular to the Equator, from the North Pole to the South Pole. They converge at the poles and are farthest apart at the Equator.
Which pole does the longitude lines connect?
The south pole
Are theimaginary lines that run from the north pole to the south pole around the world parallel?
Yes, the imaginary lines that run from the North Pole to the South Pole (longitude lines) are parallel to each other. These lines are equidistant from each other and converge only at the poles.
What lines of a map run from north pole to the south pole?
lines of equal longitude, a.k.a. meridians
Why magnetic lines go from north to south?
north pole is negatively charged and the south is positively charged.
What dierction do longitude lines go?
North and south, from pole to pole.
What are imaginary lines that go through the north pole and south pole called?
longitudinal lines run north/south; Latitudinal lines run east/west
What are the lines that go through the north pole and south pole?
No geographic mapping lines go "through" the poles. The meridians of longitude are semi-circles that join the poles, so the ends of the meridians are at the poles.

Do the longitudinal lines run parallel to the Equator?
No, the longitudinal lines run perpendicular to the Equator, from the North Pole to the South Pole. They converge at the poles and are farthest apart at the Equator.
Are the lines that run pole to pole are called?
Lines of Longitude
What are longitude lines?
lines that run from the north pole to the south pole!
Which way does longitudinal lines go?
Longitudinal lines run from pole to pole, parallel to the Prime Meridian. They help locate positions east or west of the Prime Meridian on a map or globe.
Why are the electric lines are on top of the pole?
Electric lines are on top of the pole to keep them out of the way.
what direction do lines of longitude run on the earth?
Longitude lines run from pole to pole.
Lines of longitude are semicircles that extend from the north pole to the south pole?
No. Longitude is east and west of the equator. Lines of Latitude run from the north pole (prime meridian) to the south pole. Try thinking of latitude as the word "ladder" because ladders go up and down. Just a hint ;)
Which pole does the longitude lines connect?
The south pole
