What projection shows all lines of latitude and longitude as straight lines?
The Mercator projection does that.
What is projection has parallel latitude lines and parallel longitude lines?
A projection with parallel latitude lines and parallel longitude lines is known as a cylindrical projection. This type of projection preserves the shape of features along the equator and distorts them towards the poles. Examples include the Mercator and Miller cylindrical projections.
Which type of map projection shows all latitude and longitude lines as parell?
The cylindrical map projection, such as the Mercator projection, shows all latitude and longitude lines as parallel. However, this projection distorts the size of land masses the further they are from the equator.
The Mercator projection made life easier for early navigators because they could plot their compass bearings as straight lines What type of projection is a Mercator projection?
cylindrical
What is another name for an oval shape projection map?
A Robinson Projection Map - also called an orthophanic projection in which the lines of latitude are curved. It was created by a Canadian-born cartographer named Arthur Robinson (1915 - 2004). There is also a Mollweide projection - within an ellipse in which the lines of longitude are curved. That was devised by Karl Brandan Mollweide, a German from Wolfenbuttel (1774 - 1825).
What projection shows all lines of latitude and longitude as straight lines?
The Mercator projection does that.
What is difference between parallel and perspective projection in Computer Graphics?
Parallel projection does not produces realistic views whereas perspective projection produces realistic viewin parallel projection lines of projection are parallel whereas in perspective projection lines are not parallel and the point where these lines meets is called ceter of projection in case of perspective projection
What is the advantage of Mercator projection?
The ability of the Mercator projection to allow straight and constant course lines. Or longitude and latitude lines.

What is the difference between mercator and Robinson projection?
the mercator projection lines are straight but the robinsons are curved
What is a map projection where the lines of longitude are parallel called?
That's true of the Mercator projection, among others.
Describe the two sets of line that are used on globes and some maps?
One line is a projection that maintains accurate distances from the center of the projection or along given lines it is called an equidistant projection. Another line is a cylindrical projection which projects information from the spherical Earth to a cylinder.
Are Oblique lines of sight perpendicular to to the frontal projection plane?
no

What is the most famous example of cylindrical projection?
The most famous example of cylindrical projection is the Mercator projection. This type of map projection distorts the size and shape of landmasses as they get closer to the poles, but it is commonly used for nautical navigation due to its ability to represent lines of constant compass bearing as straight lines.
