Lines of latitude are the horizontal lines seen on maps that show the distance from the equator in degrees. As such a line of latitude takes the form of a closed circle that will only ever meet itself.

Lines of longitude however run vertically i.e. north to south and as such they represent angular deviation or distance from the prime line of longitude running through the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, in the UK. As these lines run north to south they will ultimately all meet at the poles.

No two lines of latitude ever meet or cross. That's why they're often called

"parallels" of latitude.

All lines of latitude meet at what line?

Lines of constant latitude are parallel. No two of them meet anywhere.All lines of constant latitude cross all lines of constant longitude.


Do latitude lines meet at the polls?

No.


Do lines of latitude ever meet?

They don't cross other latitude lines. They cross longitude lines.


Where do the east lines of latitude meet the west lines?

they are both the same lines.


Where do lines of longitude converge (meet)?

-- All lines of longitude meet at the north and south poles. -- No two lines of latitude ever meet or cross each other. -- Every line of longitude crosses every line of latitude. -- Every line of latitude crosses every line of longitude. -- There are an infinite number of each kind, so there are an infinite number of places where a line of longitude crosses a line of latitude. (That's kind of the whole idea of the system.)


Which lines meet at the poles latitude or longitude?

longitude


This is formed when the latitude and longitude lines meet?

Where do the latitude lines meet?

None of the latitudes meet together because they are parallel. The North Pole and South Pole do not have any latitudes or longitudes because all directions are south at the north pole and north at the south pole.


What is the location of aisa where the lines of latitude and longitude meet?

You'll have to be more specific. Every latitude crosses all longitudes, and every longitude crosses all latitudes.

Are lines of latitude always parallel?

Yes. Any two lines of latitude are the same distance apart everywhere, and they never meet or cross. This is a big part of the reason that they're often called "parallels" of latitude.
