On which type of map does distortion increase with distance from the poles?
what is the poles distance of space and matter.
On what type of map does distortion increase with distance from the poles?
The Mercator Projection distorts the size of large objects from the Equator to the poles. It was named for Flemish map make Gerardus Mercator.
What is the type of map that exaggerates distances at the poles?
The type of map that exaggerates distances at the poles is called a cylindrical map projection, specifically the Mercator projection. In this projection, areas far from the equator, particularly near the poles, appear much larger than they actually are, leading to significant distortion in size and distance. This makes it useful for navigation but less accurate for representing the true size of landmasses.
Is poles on a map?
Yes, poles are typically depicted on maps as symbolized points marking the geographic North and South Poles. These symbols help orient viewers and understand the mapping of Earth's surface.
A cylinder map projection shows a high degree of distortion at the?
The cylinder map projection shows a high degree of distortion at the poles. This distortion causes shapes and distances to be exaggerated in polar regions, while the equator remains relatively accurate.
What kind of map scale show a bar graph?

How are the meridians on the map different from the meridians on a globe?
Meridians on a globe get closer and eventually merge at the North and South Poles. On a map (a flat plane) the meridians are drawn parallel and there is distortion at the poles, most noticeable on a world map.
What does a polar projection show?
A map of a location near or in the poles.
What kind of poles did people use to record their history?
Totem Poles
Which part of the earth is best reflected on a map?
The part of the Earth that is best reflected on a map is the surface. Maps reflect borders of countries or territories as well as physical features like mountains.

What kind of map is a tree map?
It is a thinking map
What line on the map is midway between the north and south poles?
The equator is the line on the map that is midway between the North and South Poles. It is located at 0 degrees latitude and divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere.
