Public roads are not always in straight lines because the local geography must be factored in. For example, the curvature of the earth, stability of the ground, the presence of hills/elevations, the presence of underground elements (e.g. tunnels), local vegetation and ecosystems must all be considered.
Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't. In the Euclidean plane. a straight line is the shortest distance between two points. Also, the equation of a straight line is simpler than that of curved lines. Finally, there is the Occam Rule which can be put as follows: when there are lots of possibilities to choose from, go for the simplest one. There are infinitely many curves (including a straight line) that can go through a pair of points.
distortion of a size, shape, distance, or area occurs.
A linear line is one that is straight with no curves. A non-linear line would not be perfectly straight and can have many curves.
Yes they have straight lines no curves and angles.
A polygon.
It is the shortest distance between two points.
Actual distance travel is the total distance you actually traveled, including all the loops and curves. Straight line distance is the direct distance between the 2 places, in a straight line without a curve
"Displacement" is the shortest possible measurement between the place you started from and the place where you ended up, without regard for the route you took. It's usually the length of a straight line between those two places. "Distance" is how far you actually traveled on the way ... all the twists, turns, curves, switchbacks, hairpins, loops, and doubles. Distance can never be shorter than displacement. The distance you cover in a day is (distance to school) plus (distance back home). But the displacement is zero because you end up exactly where you started.
The shortest distance between any 2 points. An ideal zero-width, infinitely long, perfectly straight curve (the term curve in mathematics includes "straight curves") containing an infinite number of points. In Euclidean geometry, exactly one line can be found that passes through any two points.A line in math is a straight line that goes forever on each side.

about 8-10 hours it depends on the driver and the conditions of the road the shortest distance is going for the road of the sierra madre occidental it is a very very dangerous interestate road known for its curves and creeks
A line is straight and never-ending. A circle curves and is round.
Depends, Radar detectors like the V1 have a distance of about 3 miles with constant on radar on straight aways. You have to take in account curves, hills, and other factors.
Any "straight" line between the north and south poles is a meridian. (It can't actually be "straight" because it's on the surface of a sphere. But we describe it that way to mean that it's a line that just goes on about its business from one pole to the other by the shortest route, without any squiggles, waves, breaks, or extra curves in it.)
A linear line is one that is straight with no curves. A non-linear line would not be perfectly straight and can have many curves.
Does this strait go straight? No, it curves at the end.
