Source sentences:
text: Parallels and meridians are all straight lines intersecting each other at right angles.
text: As in all cylindrical projections, parallels and meridians on the Mercator are straight and perpendicular to each other.
text: With y having no dependency on longitude, parallels are straight horizontal lines.
text: If the cylinder is unrolled into a flat sheet, the parallels and meridians will be straight lines that create the right angles where they intersect each other.
text: All the parallels and meridians are straight lines crossing each other at the right angles.
text: Meridians are straight lines and equally spaced, while parallels are also straight lines but their spacing increases as they get closer to the poles.
text: Other meridians are curved lines, while other parallels are straight lines.
text: All the parallels are straight lines perpendicular to a central meridian, while other lines are curved like those in the Mollweide projection.
text: A projection can be pseudocylindrical, which means that although the parallels of latitude are straight lines, the scale along them varies, so the meridians are no longer perpendicular to them, or (necessarily) straight lines.
text: Equator and other parallels are straight lines (spacing increases toward poles) and meet meridians (equally spaced straight lines) at right angles.
text: The cylindrical projections (Figure 3) are projections in which the meridians are shown by equidistant parallel straight lines and the parallels are straight lines perpendicular to the meridians.
text: cylindrical projection Obtained by projecting the Earth’s surface onto a cylinder; the meridians and parallels are thus straight lines intersecting at right angles.
