Use a ruler to measure the approximate distances between the following cities Sparta to thebes cydonia to argos samos to miletus byzantium miletus?

To measure the approximate distances between the cities, you would need a map with a scale. Using a ruler, you can measure the straight-line distances between Sparta to Thebes, Cydonia to Argos, and Samos to Miletus, as well as Byzantium to Miletus. Each measurement can then be converted to real-world distances using the map's scale for accuracy. If you need specific distances, it's best to consult a detailed map or use mapping software.
