Question

what are the type of scale​

Answer 1

Answer:

. Fractional or Ratio Scale: A fractional scale map shows the fraction of an object or land feature on the map. This type uses a set of numbers that represents the object or a landmark. As an example on the left photo, the orange-shaded scale represents a 2/3 fractional scale.

Linear Scale: A linear scale shows the distance between two or more prominent landmarks. The linear scale on maps is a set of lines or dots that represents a landmark. An example on the left photo is a map using a linear scale on each road.

Verbal Scale: This type of scale use simple words to describe a prominent surface feature. A verbal map scale expands abbreviations to describe a landmark or an object. An example is the image to the left describes a scale as cm is equal to 15 kilometer.

Changed Scale: Maps presenting a large amount of distance such as 1450000cm are difficult to describe. A changed scale type acts as an alternative to a large ratio or a metric scale. As an example, the metric ratio scale of 1:1450000 changes into 1 cm = 15 km.

Answer 2

$\huge \fbox \blue{Answer}$

There are different types of scales such as Verbal Statement , Representative Fraction and Linear Scale . Let us know more about these scale in detail .

Verbal Statement : Scale written in a statement form like 2 cm to a km is called verbal Statement. It means that 2 cm on the map represents 1 km on the Earth .

Representative Fraction : Scale can also be written as a ratio or fraction ( R.F. ) . For example , 1 : 50,000 ; it means 1 cm on the map represents 50,000 cm or ½ km on the ground . It shows the ratio between map distance and ground distance .

Linear Scale : Scale can be drawn on a line to show map distance equivalent to ground distance . A line is divided into equal parts. Each part represents the actual distance on the ground in m / km.
