a: True

Step-by-step explanation

A parallel is an imaginary line that runs parallel to the equator and goes completely around the earth(RED) . Since it is parallel to the equator(BLUE), it will be the same distance from the equator at every point along the parallel(GREEN).

all points along a parallel(red) are the same distance(green) from the equator.(blue)

is this statement true or false?all points along a parallel are the same distance-example-1
