C.Match the following:-
Que-1
write the chief characteristics of the lines of latitudes?
Ans-1 "Lines of Latitude and their two characteristics are as follows:
1.Every
parallel of the latitudes make the full circle, and this is one of the most
important characteristics of the lines of latitude.
2.When
it comes to the lines of latitude, they perpetually drew at an angular range
with respect to the equator.

are the two types of lines needed to locate any point on the earth’s
surface?
Ans-2 : Latitudes and longitudes are required to locate any point on the
earth’s surface.
Que-3
what is the latitude of the north pole?
Ans-3 The North Pole is one of the key geographic locations on earth in
which geographers use to orient other locations. It is located on a frozen ice
sheet in the Arctic Ocean in the Northern Hemisphere.
