Which statements describe conic projections? check all that apply.
multiple types exist.
pilots use this projection type.
poles usually serve as central points.
latitude lines connect at a central point.
conic projections are the most distorted type.

Answer

- Multiple types exist (the Albers conic, the equidistant conic projection and the Lambert conformal conic projection).

- Pilots use this projection type (the Lambert conformal conic projection is used for aeronautical charts).

- Poles usually serve as central points.

Notes:

Latitude lines connect at a central point. - False. Longitude lines connect at a central points. Latitude lines will form circles around the central point.

Conic projections are the most distorted type. False. All projections suffer from distortions. However, it cannot be said that the conic projections are the most distorted. For example, the Lambert Conformal Conic is a shape-preserving projection.

Explanation:

Conical projections are the most appropriate cartographic projections for the representation of countries at medium latitudes and / or for the representation of a particular hemisphere. They are thought as if a cone were placed over one of the terrestrial hemispheres. This cone being in contact with the Earth at mid latitudes and the rest of the planet being projected towards the rest of the cone, then the cone is cut vertically and flattened.

These projections come in many forms, are widely used by pilots, and the poles generally serve as central points.
