At a certain angle - 45 degrees if the starting point and end point are at the same level, and air resistance can be ignored - and at a certain speed, the range is maximum. Both for lower and for higher angles, you get a lower range.
No. To be an angle, the ends of each ray must have the same endpoint, therefore, the lines must intersect. Parallel lines have the same slope, so cannot ever intersect.

Some shapes have angles and so they are important in defining the shapes. And angles are absolutely critical for angles. They are the very essence of their existence: if it were not for angles then there would be no angles.
Yes, congruent angles are angles that have the same measure.
No, on the Eckert projection, north is not always represented as being straight. The Eckert projection is an equal-area map projection that distorts shape and direction in order to preserve area. This means that while areas are accurate, angles and shapes are distorted, including the direction of north.
On a globe, parallels and meridians meet at right angles only at the equator and the poles. On a Mercator projection map, all meridians intersect the equator at right angles, while parallels intersect meridians at right angles throughout the map.
The type of cylindrical map projection that fits this description is the Mercator projection. It is commonly used for navigation purposes due to its property of showing straight meridians and parallels that intersect at right angles, although it does distort the sizes of landmasses at higher latitudes.
The Mercator projection has straight meridians and parallels that intersect at right angles. Scale is true at the equator or at two standard parallels equidistant from the equator. The projection is often used for marine navigation because all straight lines on the map are lines of constant azimuth.
A cylindrical map projection in which the meridians and parallels of latitude appear as lines crossing at right angles and in which areas appear greater farther from the equator.conic
Cylindrical
On a globe, parallels and meridians do not intersect at right angles; only the equator and the prime meridian intersect perpendicular to each other. On a Mercator projection map, the meridians appear as straight lines converging at the poles, while the parallels are equally spaced horizontally, giving the illusion that they intersect at right angles, when in reality that is not the case.
Google Earth uses a Simple Cylindrical (Plate Carree) Projection with a WGS84 datum for its imagery base. Altitude is measured from the vertical datum (WGS84 EGM96 Geoid).This is a simple map projection where the meridians and parallels are equidistant, straight lines, with the two sets crossing at right angles. This projection is also known as Lat/Lon WGS84.
Yes. They intersect at 90 degree angles.
