Not true for several reasons. Assuming the map scale is 1:250000, that means the the map is showing distances as one 250000th of the real distance, not 2500000. Furthermore, the given scale applies to distance. For area the appropriate factor is (250000)2 so 62500000000th of the real area.

That's true of the Mercator projection, among others.
The meaning of the phrase "not to scale" is to let you know that the drawing, map, etc. does not represent the real world lengths or measures. In other words, if you were to look at a map with 3 towns on it, you couldn't use the visual distance to determine which one was closer. Similarly, the photograph of a product (like a plastic bead) which is on the box is not representing the true size of the object.
look at the scale of the map
An isotherm is a line along which the temperature is constant.An isothermal map is useful since it shows us where temperatures are similar and where they are different. This is the type of map that we think about when we think about temperatures across the United States from the nightly weather report or the back of USA Today.Found it here: http://www.ux1.eiu.edu/~jpstimac/1400/chapter3.html
A world isothermal map shows the distribution of temperature around the globe in a specific timeframe. It helps to visualize regions of warm and cold temperatures and identify patterns such as temperature gradients between different latitudes or the presence of thermal anomalies due to climate events.

Yes.
The Cold War was a period of conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union over ideology which resulted in huge military buildups and the fight for influence around the world. Using your own knowledge of the Cold War and referring to the map above, which statement is true regarding the influence of the US and the USSR?Alliances were strongly influenced by differences in economic systems.
The source statement of a map typically contains information about where the data came from, who created the map, and when it was last updated. It provides transparency and helps users understand the reliability and relevance of the information presented on the map.
yes map projection shows true direction
A equal-area map shows the "true" size of Australia.

The map of Europe had changed significantly because many nations' borders had changed.
Assuming the map is of the known world, medieval maps were usually centered on Jerusalem. Sometimes they were centered on Rome. Portolan charts were sometimes based on a projectioncentering on Alexandria, and this was true even if Alexandria was not on the map.
