Amazing way of explaination..sliced 7 tomatoes..got it..thnx

Another basic question which has been troubling me is the fact that meridians of longitude are rhumb lines.By definition rhumb lines are lines which cut all the meridians at equal angle.So how come a meridian becomes a rhumb line.

Looking forward to another great explaination.Thnx.
