The four types of distortion are shape, distance, relative size, and direction.
shape and size are disterted with the greatest distortions on the outer edges of the map
A conic map is because little distortion if area is limited and its longitude and latitude is straight.
interupted projection
Interrupted area~
A map represents the earth's surface or a part on it of a flat surface. But the map has limitations. The biggest limitation of a map is when drawing a spherical surface of the earth onto a flat surface like a map. It hinders the drawing of an accurate map. Distortion of size, shape, and area, and discontinuity occurs in such depictions. Thus there are different kind of maps to fulfill the requirement of the people
The distortion was that the Earth was round

when a earth's map in a circle the location will be one place.If you put the earth's map in a paper the location will be another place.thats the distortion of earth.
A small area map.

Map distortion is due to the fact that the earth's surface is curved but maps are flat. The more curved the surface that a map represents, the more distortion. For the same size map, one with a smaller scale encompasses a larger surface area of the earth when compared to one with a larger scale. Therefore, the one with a smaller scale will have more distortion.
A projection is a way of keeping the distortion of a flat map

There is always some distortion.
The stretching, bending, and enlarging of areas on a map due to the curvature of the earth.
