Why longitude shaped like an orange slice?
Representing the surface of a sphere like the Earth on a flat map requires distortion of distance and area. This was achieved historically by slicing the globes surface into tapering segments, like orange slices which were then spread out flat. Although this enables the Earth to be shown as flat, the huge distortion must be remembered. There is little distortion at the Equator, but it gets worse towards the poles. On a flat, square map of the whole planet the poles, which are actually mere points, are shown as continuous lines at the top and bottom! The longitude lines are just vertical lines. Some world maps show the segments actually separated, or do not show the segments totally flattened. On these maps the longitude lines are curved and the distortion lessened, but certainly not eliminated.

What kind of map is rectangular representation of Earth that shows accurate directions but distorts size ans distance?
ALL flat maps distort distances and directions. The Earth is roughly a sphere; there is no way to show a flat map without distortions. When you press your face against a window, flattening your face distorts your image; so too with every kind of map. The only map with no distortion is a globe.But each different kind of map produces different kinds of distortions, so it's important to pick the kind of map that produces the least distortion for your purpose.But perhaps the worst map, in terms of distortion at higher latitudes, is the Mercator projection of the entire Earth. Along the equator, a Mercator map is quite accurate, but as you move north or south of about 45 degrees latitude, it becomes wildly exaggerated.For higher latitudes, choose a "conic section" matched to your latitude. Around the poles, you should choose a polar projection map.
