Answer:

A Mercator projection is the correct answer

Explanation:

The Mercator projection was first presented by cartographer and Flemish geographer Gerardus Mercator in 1569. Later due to its unique representation of north as up and south as down while preserving the local angular relationships, it became the standard projection for use in navigation. One major drawback of Mercator projection is that it distorts distance and size as you get closer towards the pole.

Answer:

A Mercator projection

Explanation:

Mercator projection is defined as a map projection was found in 1569 by Flemish cartographer Gerardus Mercator.

The Mercator projection seems parallels around a cylindrical globe and meridians appears as straight lines, but there is distortion of scale near the poles which do not make it a practical world map.

Hence, the correct answer is "A Mercator projection".
