Latitudes are parallel to the equator. Longitudes converge like elastics on a soccer ball.
Longitudes are lines that run north to south on a globe. At the poles, longitudes converge and meet because all lines of longitude, or meridians, come together at a single point. This means that at the poles, there is no east or west direction left to differentiate between, so the longitudes effectively merge together.
None of the latitudes meet together because they are parallel. The North Pole and South Pole do not have any latitudes or longitudes because all directions are south at the north pole and north at the south pole.
If they did, then you'd have two different longitudes at the same point, which isgenerally a no-no.The only places where that happens is at the north and south poles, where all longitudesconverge (meet, come together).
The South Pole is where the lines of longitude meet in the Southern Hemisphere. It happens at the North Pole as well.
Parallel lines never meet. On the other hand, every pair of longitudes meets at the Earth's North and South Poles.
At the poles.
All longitudes converge at the north and south poles.
All longitudes converge at the north and south poles.

Yes. All longitudes converge (meet) at the north and south poles.

ok easy its called the north of south poles(def/how: all those latitudes and longitudes of the globe[the lines that go up and down]are all straight but since the earth is round on a globe youl see then to curve and meet at once single point but theres two areas were they meet the north pole and south pole

You'll have to be more specific. Every latitude crosses all longitudes, and every longitude crosses all latitudes.
Longitudes and latitudes meet at every point on the planet. since both latitude and longitude are human ideas, not real objects, nothing is formed at those intersections. however, if you know which particular latitude and longitude meet at some specific point of interest, then you know the map coordinates of that place.A mathematician would say that any line of longitude and any line of latitude form a right angle where they meet.
