For planning a voyage by ship in a straight line across the ocean, the Mercator projection is the most suitable. This cylindrical map projection preserves angles, making it useful for navigation as it allows sailors to plot a straight course with a constant compass bearing. However, it does distort the size of landmasses, especially near the poles, so it's primarily used for navigation rather than for representing areas accurately.
Yes. If it is not straight, then it is not a line.
it just a straight line
A straight line has no vertex.
If it is not straight, then it is not a line.
Displacement of a straight line is zero...
The word straight does have an antonym, which is crooked. So perhaps a crooked line is the opposite of a straight line.
The length (distance) of a straight line always changes, the angle of a straight line is 180 degrees.
The straight-line distance is 1,030 miles (to the coastline of Puerto Rico). This is the true straight line distance which accounts for the curvature of the earth, NOT simply a straight line drawn on a map.
A straight line is a line with the property that, if you pick any two points on the line and connect these points with a straight line, then every point on this new line lies on the original line.
A line that goes straight acrosswould be ahorizontal line.
The straight-line distance is 1885.7 miles. This is the true straight line distance which accounts for the curvature of the earth, NOT the straight line drawn on a map.
