the answer is distortions!!!! i had homework for geography and that is for sure theanswer !!!!!!
A change in the accuracy of shapes and distances on a map is called distortion. Distortion occurs because it is impossible to represent the Earth's curved surface on a flat map without some degree of distortion in shape, size, or distance.
most distances, sizes and shapes are accurate
Most distances, sizes, and shapes are accurate
You can measure distances of around 10-12 centimetres to an accuracy of 0.1 millimetres.
most distances, sizes and shapes are accurate
most distances, sizes and shapes are accurate
Because it is impossible to show both.
It will still point more or less towards magnetic north. BUT the accuracy will change as you move great distances around the earth. So it does need to be adjusted.
cars are different shapes to change the speed, gas mileage, and design.
Cells can take on a solid shape, have no shape at all, or change shapes.
Coordinated geometry is used to plot locations in a manner that permits assessing distances and areas with mathematical accuracy..
All sorts of things in countries where the Metric System of Weights and Measures is standard. In the US, yards are more commonly used for distances. Meters can be used instead with some accuracy for short distances, but the greater the distance the less the accuracy, as a yard is some three inches shorter than a meter. The Canadians play football on a hundred-meter field.
