What is the shortest distance across the globe's surface on a scale of 1:1,000,000 from the equator to the North Pole?

Final Answer:

x =  1000.75 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

M=1000000 R=6371 km m=6371 1000  m=6371000 m  R2=R/M=6371000/1000000=6.371 m r2=R2 cm=R2 100  cm=6.371 100  cm=637.1 cm  o=2π r2=2 3.1416 637.14003.0174 cm x=41 o=41 4003.0174=1000.75 cm
