Latitudes are the imaginary lines joining all places having the same latitude towards north or south of the Equator. These are also called parallels of latitudes as they run parallel to the Equator. There are 181 parallels of latitudes.
 
Longitudes are the imaginary vertical lines which run from the North Pole to the South Pole. There are 360 longitudes. The distance between two longitudes is measured in terms of degrees. Longitudes are semi-circular and distance between them decreases as they go towards the poles.
