The equator on the globe is ? the main reference line or at 0 degree or at 180 degree |

Answer» The equator is at 0°, and both of the earth's poles are at 90° from the equator. Latitude is determined by the angle between a point on the earth's surface and the equator. To CALCULATE the angle, draw a line from the point to the center of the earth and a line from the equator to the center of the earth.Explanation:The meridian that runs through Greenwich, ENGLAND, is internationally ACCEPTED as the line of 0 degrees longitude, or prime meridian. The antimeridian is halfway around the world, at 180 degrees. It is the basis for the International DATE Line.I hope it will be HELPFUL to you friend |
