2 Geography True or False Questions?

The Greenwich Meridian runs through London and is 0 degrees longitude? True/False?





Latitude tells us how far north or south a place is in relation to the equator? True/False?





Sorry they are probably really obvious, I'm just too dumb to get them right! Lol, thanks for your help!





2 Geography True or False Questions?
both True. :)





negative lat. is south, positive is north. :)2 Geography True or False Questions?
1. True


The Prime Meridian is the meridian (line of longitude) at which longitude is defined to be 0掳.


By international convention, the modern Prime Meridian is one passing through Greenwich, London, United Kingdom, known as the International Meridian or Greenwich Meridian








2.True


Latitude, usually denoted symbolically by the Greek letter phi (桅) gives the location of a place on Earth (or other planetary body) north or south of the equator.
First is true and second is true also. You need to see the movie called Longitude! Remember there are 360 degrees in a circle!
