A change in the accuracy of shapes and distances is commonly referred to as "distortion." This occurs when the original proportions and dimensions of objects are altered, often due to projection methods in cartography or graphic representation. Distortion can affect the perception of spatial relationships and geometric forms.

If they are the same shapes but differ only in size, then they are SIMILAR shapes. Otherwise, they are simply different shapes.

A change in the accuracy of shapes and distances on a map is called?
A change in the accuracy of shapes and distances on a map is called distortion. Distortion occurs because it is impossible to represent the Earth's curved surface on a flat map without some degree of distortion in shape, size, or distance.

Can the isometric transformation change size?
No, isometric transformations do not change the size of shapes. They preserve distances and angles, meaning that the original shape and its image after the transformation will have the same dimensions. Examples of isometric transformations include translations, rotations, and reflections, which maintain the object's size and shape.
