Lines Of Longitude Are Equally Spaced

The degrees of longitude that make up the time zones are set approximately 60 nautical miles, 69 regular miles, or 11 kilometers apart at the equator. The first line at 0 degrees is drawn around the equator. In the basic grid there are 180 such equally spaced lines to the east of the greenwich base line, 180 to the west.

Lines of latitude and longitude are parallel intersecting at 90 degrees. Besides occam’s razor (never ascribe to fraud or malice what can be explained by ignorance or stupidity), i have no answer to op. Speaking of interesting projections, one really big drawback of buckminster fuller’s dymaxion projection in #111, 119 is that it sprawls all over the page, so that it must be greatly.

Lines of longitude, also called meridians, are imaginary lines that divide the earth.

It passes through greenwich, england, a borough of london. There are a total of 360 meridians. In reality cylindrical map projections are not so simply constructed. Although latitude lines are always equally spaced, longitude lines are furthest from each other at the equator and meet at the poles.
