The answer is: [C]: the Prime Meridian.
___________________________________
The Prime Meridian; which is an imaginary line and arbitrarily chosen, runs through 0° longitude and runs through Greenwich, English.
__________________________________________________
The Equator runs through 0° latitude.
_____________________________
The North Pole is located at 90° north latitude and is not an imaginary line.
Technically, any longitude value from 0° to 180°—East or West—would be the correct longitude for the North Pole; however, by convention, the coordinates are 90°N, 0°W.
____________________________
The South Pole is located at 90° south latitude and is not an imaginary line. Technically, like the North Pole, any longitude value from 0° to 180°—East or West—would be the correct longitude for the South Pole; however, by convention, the coordinates of 90°S, 0°E; or even: - 90° S, 0° E.

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of HX

marta [7]

Answer:

$M(29, -12)$

Explanation:

Given:

$H(4\frac{1}{2}, -3\frac{1}{4}), X(2\frac{3}{4}, -2\frac{3}{4})$

Required:

Coordinates of the Midpoint of HX

Solution:

Midpoint (M) of HX, for $H(4\frac{1}{2}, -3\frac{1}{4}), X(2\frac{3}{4}, -2\frac{3}{4})$ is given as

$M(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2})$ .

Let $H(4\frac{1}{2}, -3\frac{1}{4}) = (x_1, y_1)$

$X(2\frac{3}{4}, -2\frac{3}{4}) = (x_2, y_2)$

Thus:

$M(\frac{4\frac{1}{2} + 2\frac{3}{4}}{2}, \frac{-3\frac{1}{4} + (-2\frac{3}{4})}{2})$

Convert to improper fractions

$M(\frac{\frac{9}{2} + \frac{11}{4}}{2}, \frac{-\frac{13}{4} + (-\frac{11}{4})}{2})$

$M(\frac{\frac{18 + 11}{2}}{2}, \frac{\frac{-13 - 11}{4}}{2})$

$M(\frac{\frac{29}{2}}{2}, \frac{\frac{-24}{4}}{2})$

$M(\frac{29}{2}*2, \frac{-24}{4}*2$

$M(29, -12)$

Explanation:

Geography is a science that has numerous fields of study, and they involve studying the physical and socio-economic features of the world. Some of the geographic sciences that study the physical features are geomorphology, geology, potamology, limnology, hydrology, etc. Some of the geographic sciences that study the socio-economic features are demography, economic geography, geopolitics, population distribution, settlements distribution, etc.

In the sphere of physical geography, the features that can be studied are in a very high number. Some of them are mountains, valleys, plateaus, fjords, gorges, canyons, rivers, lakes, ponds, marshes, caves, etc.

In the sphere of socio-economic geography, the features that can be studied are too high in number. Some of them are languages spoken in an area, ethnic composition, racial composition, religious composition, migration patterns, education levels, infrastructure, financial situation, etc.

How did natural resources help europe to become industrialized

mote1985 [20]

In Europe, countries like Britain, Germany and France had abundant natural resources such as coal, iron and water which are key to industry. For example Britain, where the industrial revolution began, had a lot of resources including water ways, waterpower, coal and iron ore. They used rivers for inland transportation. The first power source they had was waterpower, but as they started to use the steam engine, they used coal instead. Britain also made machines, tools and building with iron ore.
