Does an equal-area map or a mercator map show the true size of Australia?
A equal-area map shows the "true" size of Australia.
What Mao is rectangular representation of earth that shows accurate directions?
The rectangular representation of Earth that accurately shows directions is known as a "map." Maps use a coordinate system to depict geographic features, allowing for precise navigation and orientation. They can be created using various projections, with the Mercator projection being one of the most well-known for preserving direction, though it distorts size, particularly near the poles.
What is a feature of a map that shows you how the map is placed in relationship to true north?
A compass rose is a feature on a map that indicates the orientation of the map with respect to true north. It typically shows the cardinal directions (north, south, east, west) and sometimes intermediate directions. This helps users understand which direction is north on the map.

What of the following map elements is used to show cardinal directions on a map?
The feature that shows the cardinal directions on a map is called the compass rose.
What shows the cardinal directions or the intermediate directions on a map?
A compass rose shows the cardinal directions (north, east, south, west) and the intermediate directions (northeast, southeast, southwest, northwest) on a map. It helps orientate the map and indicate specific locations in relation to these directions.
Which device sHow is the direction on a map?

What is a tool that shows directions on a map?
there is a compass rose and a legend that shows what a symbol means.
What type of map shows distortion increase with distance from the poles?
Polar Projections
What kind of map the true shapes of continents?
A map that accurately depicts the true shapes of continents is called an equal-area map, such as the Mollweide or Goode's Homolosine projections. These projections aim to minimize distortion in area, allowing for a more accurate representation of continents relative to each other.
What is the map line called that shows constant compass directions?
Conformal
What is a standard map show cardinal direction?
A standard map typically shows cardinal directions, with north at the top, south at the bottom, east on the right, and west on the left. These directions help orientate readers and indicate which way is which on the map.
