In the study of India's size and extent, what type of lines do 68°7'E and 97°25'E represent?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Lines of longitude

The letters E or east show that the values are measured eastward from the Prime Meridian, so they are longitudes. The meridians at approximately 68°7′E and 97°25′E mark the western and eastern limits used to describe India’s east-west extent. Lines of longitude run from the North Pole to the South Pole and are used to locate positions east or west. Therefore, option A is correct. Lines of latitude are parallel circles measured north or south of the Equator and would be written with N or S, so option B is incorrect. Coastlines and state boundaries are irregular physical or political lines, not angular coordinate values expressed with E.
