Answer 2

Answer:

Gerardus Mercator devised the method for showing the correct shapes and direction of continents.

Explanation:

• In $1569$, Gerhard Kremer, also known as Gerardus Mercator, published a massive planispheric map printed on $18$ distinct sheets to reveal a new projection.
• Combined with an extensive explanation for utilising the projection that appears as a portion of text on the map, this demonstrates that Mercator was well aware of what he had accomplished and that the projection was designed to ease navigation.
• Mercator never described how he arrived at his method of construction.
