Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Longitude is measured by imaginary lines that run around Earth vertically (up and down) and meet at the North and South Poles. These lines are known as meridians.
Detailed explanation-2: -Similar to latitude, the corresponding measurement of distance around the Earth is called longitude. The imaginary lines of latitude and longitude intersect each other, forming a grid that covers Earth. The points of latitude and longitude are called coordinates, and can be used together to locate any point on Earth.
