maps​

Answer 1

Conventional symbols are widely accepted signs or sign systems which signify an idea or concept. They represent different features on a map and are not drawn to scale. They are important because:

•  It is easy and more clear to use a map which has symbols.
•  Symbols can be used to depict features like cities, roads and railways.
•  A map is a useless tool without symbols. Symbols convey the information provided by the map.
