A projection built on a plane touching the globe at one point is called

  • A.azimuthal
  • B.cylindrical
  • C.conic
  • D.pseudocylindrical

Answer: A

Azimuthal projections show true direction from the point of tangency, which makes them natural for polar maps and for anything organised around a single centre. Cylindrical and conic forms wrap different surfaces around the globe instead.
