Question 1

A Lambert's conformal chart extends from 29°N to 45°N with standard parallels at 31°N and 43°N. At 43°N a standard parallel, is the scale the SAME, GREATER, or LESS than the scale at 45°N?

Question 2

A Lambert's conformal chart has standard parallels at 31°N and 43°N. Is the scale at 43°N the SAME, GREATER, or LESS than the scale at 37°N?

Question 3

A Lambert's conformal chart has standard parallels at 31°N and 43°N. Is the scale at 43°N the SAME, GREATER, or LESS than the scale at 31°N?

Question 4

A Lambert's Conformal chart covers 42°S to 64°S with a convergency factor of 0.8. A straight-line track from K 48°S (178°E) to M (152°W) passes through L. The track direction at K is (102°T) and at L is (096°T). What is the longitude of position L?

Question 5

On the same Lambert chart CF=0.8, for the track from K 48°S (178°E) to M (152°W), what is the approximate rhumb line track from K to M?
