Often only southeast slopes are hachured or shaded, giving somewhat the effect of a bird's-eye view of the area illuminated by light from the northwest. Shadings orcarefully drawn hachures, neither of which give elevations, are more easily interpreted than contour lines and are sometimes used in conjunction with them for greaterclarity. IV MAP PROJECTIONS For the representation of the entire surface of the earth without any kind of distortion, a map must have a spherical surface; a map of this...

INTRODUCCIÓN
Proyección cilíndrica
Si se coloca un papel dispuesto en forma de cilindro alrededor de un globo iluminado, la proyección en el cilindro será un mapa de
proyección cilíndrica.
proyecciones cónicas, se puede representar en un mapa un área extensa con una exactitud considerable.• Proyecciones acimutales o cenitales. Se obtienen al proyectar la superficie esférica sobre un plano. Pueden ser polares (plano tangente al polo), ecuatoriales (planotangente a un punto sobre el ecuador) u oblicuas (plano tangente a un punto cualquiera entre el polo y el ecuador). Son las que representan mejor las zonas polares. Soloabarcan un hemisferio. Las deformaciones aumentan a medida que...

INTRODUCTION
Geometry, branch of mathematics that deals with shapes and sizes.
Conic sections, a commonly studied topic of geometry, are two-dimensional curves created by slicing a plane through a three-dimensional hollow cone. A Euclid’s Postulates Euclid, who lived about 300 BC, realized that only a small number of postulates underlay the various geometric theorems known at the time. He determined that these theorems could be deduced from just five postulates. 1. A straight line may be drawn through any two given points. 2. A straight line may be drawn infinitely or be...
