What else can I help you with?
What tool on a map helps you determine how far apart two places are?
The scale on the map shows you how to relate distance on the map to real distance.
What do the 2 axes on a map tell you?
The axes (latitude and longitude) are used to determine the location of a place or thing on the map.
What feature found on a map helps determine orientation?
compass rose or north arrrow
What is used on a planimetric map is used to determine the actual distance between two points.?
scale
How would you measure a distance on the map that is longer then the map?
To measure a distance on a map that exceeds its length, you can use a piece of string or a flexible measuring tool to trace the route along the map. Mark where the string overlaps and then measure the length of the string using a ruler. Alternatively, if the map has a scale, you can calculate the distance in segments, measuring each segment separately and then summing them up. This way, you can accurately determine the total distance despite the map's limitations.
When using a map you use this to determine its orientation?
You can determine the orientation of a map by looking for the compass rose, which indicates the directions (north, east, south, west). Another way is to find landmarks or features on the map that you can identify with real-world locations to determine which way is north.
What helps you determine distances on a map?
The scale of a map indicates the relationship of actual distances to lengths measured on the map.
What tool on a map helps you determine how far apart two places are?
The scale on the map shows you how to relate distance on the map to real distance.
How can you determine the direction on a map without a compass rose?
You can determine the direction on a map without a compass rose by using cardinal direction.
What is the critical rule for reading a map to determine grid coordinates?
The critical rule for reading a map to determine grid coordinates is to first determine the longitude (vertical lines) and then the latitude (horizontal lines) on the map that intersect at the point of interest. The grid coordinates are then expressed as a combination of the longitude and latitude lines.
Why is it helpful to have a compass rose on a map?
A compass rose on a map indicates the direction of north, which helps the user orient themselves and determine the cardinal directions. This is important for navigation and understanding the layout of the map in relation to physical landmarks or destinations.
What do you use to determine the exact location on a map?
latitude longitude
What do the 2 axes on a map tell you?
The axes (latitude and longitude) are used to determine the location of a place or thing on the map.
What instrument would you use to determine a grid azimuth on a map?
You would use a protractor or a compass to determine a grid azimuth on a map. These tools help you measure the angle between a grid line and the north direction on the map, providing the azimuth reading.
How did map makers in the early 1800'S determine the shape and border of a state in the US map?
hi how ya coin
What two variables do you need to know to determine the gradient between two points on a map?
The height of the land, and the scale of the map
What feature in a map in used to help you determine distance?
A scale, usually in the corners, is used to determine distances on a map. It shows how much the map has been scaled down from the actual size of the place. For example, if the scale read 1cm = 150km, you would interpret that for every Centimeter on the map, 150 km is covered
