Answer 1

Answer:

first mark me as brainliest

Answer 2

Answer:

a. Parallels of latitude are imaginary reference lines that form complete circles around the earth parallel to the equator and parallel to each other. Every point on a parallel of latitude is the same distance from the equator, and thus the angle formed between the equator and the latitude line is constant.

c. A detailed drawing of a small area like a house or office building; it is always drawn to a scale. Diagrams: A diagram is a drawing that explains the structure or the workings of something.

d. GPS, in full Global Positioning System, space-based radio-navigation system that broadcasts highly accurate navigation pulses to users on or near Earth. In the United States' Navstar GPS, 24 main satellites in 6 orbits circle Earth every 12 hours.

e. Representative Fraction

Representative Fraction: A method of scale of a map or plan expressed as a fraction showing the ratio between a unit distance on the map or plan, and the distance measured in the same units on the ground.
