  • (d) Meridian
  • A meridian is an imaginary line running between the North and South Poles. These imaginary lines, which represent the distance between the two poles on the surface of the Earth, are referred to as lines of longitude. The distance between the two poles along the surface of the Earth is approximately 20,004 km, or 12,430 miles. The word "meridian" refers to the line, but in geography, it refers to the line joining the two poles on the surface of the Earth.
  • - Longitude refers to the degrees measured, not the line.
  • - Latitude refers to the imaginary lines running east to west.
  • - Earth's circumference refers to the entire distance around the Earth.
