      Longitude is measured in degrees East or West of the Prime Meridian.

      Explanation:

      Longitude is determined by imaginary lines that go vertically (up and down) around the Earth and meet at the North and South Poles. Meridians are the names given to these lines. One arcdegree of longitude is measured by each meridian. The circumference of the Earth is 360 degrees.
