Question

1. which is a line of latitude? 50°w 50°s 50°e (circle one) west of the prime meridian?

Explanation:

Lines of latitude (parallels) are measured in degrees north (°N) or south (°S) of the equator. Lines of longitude (meridians) are measured in degrees east (°E) or west (°W) of the prime meridian. Among the options, \(50^\circ\text{S}\) has the "S" (south) indicator, showing it's a latitude line. \(50^\circ\text{W}\) and \(50^\circ\text{E}\) are longitude (meridian) lines.

Answer:

\(50^\circ\text{S}\)
