Most western states in the US were surveyed and divided into grids using the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) in the 19th century. This system was used to facilitate land sales and settlement, resulting in the characteristic straight lines and right angles seen in the state boundaries and land plots.
Hawaii, being made out of islands, has no land borders.
Boundaries refer to physical or imaginary lines that separate one area from another, such as between countries or regions. Borders are the actual physical lines or areas that mark the limits of these boundaries. Borders can be defined by natural features like rivers or mountains, or they can be man-made structures like walls or fences.
Yes, states have borders that separate one from another. These borders are typically defined by geographical features such as rivers, mountains, or man-made boundaries like fences or walls. They serve as a demarcation line to distinguish the territorial jurisdiction of one state from another.
Borders are typically determined by geographical features such as rivers, mountains, or coastlines. In some cases, borders are also defined by man-made markers like walls or fences. Additionally, political agreements, treaties, or historical events may also play a role in establishing the dividing line between states or countries.

if you mean which countries have borders that are entirely made up of straight lines like say the state of Utah then none but if you mean which countries have borders that include at least some lines that are entirely or perfectly straight then probably all or nearly all A few examples like Papua New Guinea and Egypt do however come close to entirely straight borders Land borders are defined by border markers. These are placed by mutual agreement by the two countries and mark out the border. They can be anything from a few tens of metres apart to a few Km apart. Normally they are within sight of each other. The border is deemed to run in a straight line from on border marker to another. Most borders are therefore a large number of relatively short straight lines, and most borders are defined by straight lines. This does not apply to borders which run along rivers or lakes. in this case the border is normally the centre of the river, which is not a straight line. Note a line of latitude (xx °N or yy °S) is not a straight line.
Some borders are made by natural features, such as rivers. Other times, there might be a straight line determined by geographical latitude or longitude.

The borders of Djibouti are unmarked lines in the desert highlands.

No. A circle has no straight lines. You can approximate circles with very small straight lines (that's how a computer draws circles) but mathematically, no.
A shape made up of line segments is a shape with straight lines, or a polygon. for example, a square has straight lines, or is made up of line segments. A circle is not in that category because it has no straight lines, they are curved.
Depends. Probably not because nothing is perfect! :)i have to disagree - the sides of crystals are straight~*Sigh*All lines are straight. A man-made one may not be, but by the correct definition, all lines are straight. Straight lines are a mathematical concept - an ideal concept - and therefore, conceptually, all lines are straight even if man-made ones are mere approximations.
There are no straight lines in the letter "W" because it is made up of two diagonal lines intersecting at a point.
