<span>The equator is 0 degree latitude. This imaginary line, which runs through parts of South America, Africa, and Asia, is officially the halfway point between the North Pole and the South Pole.</span>
<span>The prime meridian is 0 degrees longitude. This imaginary line runs through the United Kingdom, France, Spain, western Africa, and Antarctica.</span>
By using the equator and prime meridian, we can divide the world into four hemispheres, north, south, east, and west. For instance, the United States is in the Western Hemisphere (because it is west of the prime meridian) and also in the Northern Hemisphere (because it is north of the equator).
<span>These lines are merely for the identification of where things are on a map or a globe.</span>
Below I have included an image that has the measure of all of the angles on it.
We can find the measures of the angles here due to the laws about complimentary angles. A pair of complimentary angles can be formed when 2 lines are perpendicular, and when added together, will always equal 90. The pair are the angles that are not directly adjacent from each other. In this figure, "x" and "(4x-10)" are a pair. According to another law, opposite angles, or adjacent angles, will always be equal to each other. Using the logic above is how we can find the measure of all angles.
Since one angle has a box, we know the lines are perpendicular, and that the laws of complimentary angles apply. We can also use that to see that the angle diagonal from it is equal to 90.
To solve for the other measures, we need to add the 2 equations together and set them equal to 90 (because of that law we talked about before).
x+(4x-10)=90
5x-10=90
+10+10
5x=100
/5 /5
x=20
Now that we know x equals 20, we can substitute that value in and solve.
x=20
=(4x-10)
=(4*20-10)
=(80-10)
=70
We also know this is correct because 20 and 70 equal 90.
The water cycle or hydrologic cycle is the continuous movement of water between the earth's surface and the air. Water molecules move from the atmosphere (or air) to the earth's surface and back again. Water moves from the atmosphere to the earth's surface via rain, snow, sleet or hail. It moves back to the atmosphere via evaporation. The sun's energy is the catalyst for the movement of water between the atmosphere and the earth's surface.
Answer:
Ethiopia is most densely populated in the highlands where most people live as farmers. In the 1980s, the Socialist regime made unsuccessful attempts to forcibly relocate people away from the civil war and gather the people in new villages. Ethnically, the population is very mixed and hundreds of different languages are spoken.
More and more Ethiopians are seeking refuge in the cities today than ever before. The biggest reason why more and more Ethiopians are moving to the cities is that wages are higher there than in the countryside and that there are more jobs to choose from (in the countryside it is mostly agriculture). Despite that, only 20% of the population lives in cities and other urban areas.
