Answer:

to provide a reference system

Explanation:

The equator and prim meridian used on maps provides a reference system for determining location and navigating the earth.

  • An equator is the only line of latitude that is a great circle.
  • Prime meridian is a line of longitude that is 0°
  • When both are used, they can form the basis of a reference system to determine places on earth.
  • Using these lines, we can assign values of coordinates to the earth surface to facilitate location determination.

The equator and prime meridian are used on maps to provide a reference system.
