A teacher is planning an activity about map projections and distortions. The teacher draws longitude and latitude lines on beach balls, and draws jack-o-lantern faces with triangle eyes along the lines on each beach ball. Students will then use the coordinates from the corners of the jack-o-lantern eyes, nose, and mouth to transfer the faces to flat maps. When the triangle eyes from the beach balls become more squared on the flat maps, students will recognize how various map projections, such as Mercator, Gall-Peters, and Robinson, distort land and water features toward the poles, making them appear wider.With which of the following terms will students need to be familiar in order to complete this activity?
