scale of a map
- 1. Scale of a map
- 2. Scale is a way to make drawing easy to fit on a paper
- 3. Why is it important? Just think how stupid is to search a paper of India size ,then you might go to Goa to see it on map.
- 4. I can’t make a map on a paper ,that the person will who use need to reach Goa to see Goa on map, so we use scale . A map could be made on are comfort .e.g. a wall map in order to learn it. A small map used to carry while travelling.
- 5. You may draw an apple on canvas then you might draw it big, but if you on a copy it must be small so that it can fit. But any way you are drawing a apple which size does not change.
- 6. We can understand it very easily. Just see 5 millimeter on the map=50 kilometer on the ground

- 8. Look This map shows it in a different way using under bracket. 2cm on map=20km on ground
- 9. Lets see how to • Take a scale measure just like from Mapusa till Dharbandora its 4cm and scale is 2cm=20km,so its1cm=10km,4multiply by 10=40km.So we need to travel40km to reach Dharbandora from Mapusa.
