Question

2. Which three ways are used to represent the scale of a map?
3. Convert the statement scale 1 cm = 100 km into R.F. scale
4. What method would you use to measure the length of a river?​

Answer 1

1: Map scale refers to the relationship (or ratio) between distance on a map and the corresponding distance on the ground. For example, on a 1:100000 scale map, 1cm on the map equals 1km on the ground. ... For example, a 1:100000 scale map is considered a larger scale than a 1:250000 scale map.

2: There are three primary ways to indicate scale on a map: a representative fraction (e.g., 1:24,000), a verbal scale (e.g., “One inch to the mile”), or a graphic scale bar.

4:: Solution. We use a twine method to measure the length of a river. In the twine method, a twine is placed along the feature to be measured from one end to the other, carefully following all the curves and bends. The length of the twine is then measured in centimeters or inches using a ruler or linear scale.
