Q: Which of the following scale of the map is not affected due to shrinking of map?
  • A. Engineer's scale
  • B. Graphical scale
  • C. Representative fraction
  • D. None of these
Correct Answer: Option B - Graphical scale of the map is not affected due to shrinking of map. Graphically represented by drawing a line on map and marking the ground distance directly on it. The graphical scales have the advantage over the numerical scales that the distances on the maps can be determined by actual scaling even when the map has shrunk.
