Correct Answer: It is the 180 degree longitude


Solution : The correct option is it is the 180-degree longitude.

At the International Meridian Conference in 1884 in Washington DC, the International Date Line was decided. It is an imaginary line which roughly corresponds with the 180-degree longitude. It mainly passes through the Pacific Ocean and some small island states. It is used to demarcate two calendar days and their point of change.
