Sinusoidal Projections Operate Based on the Premise That

Sinusoidal projections operate based on the premise that

A) distortion should be minimized in polar areas and maximized in equatorial areas.
B) the map can be interrupted in areas that are not important to show on a particular map and distortion can be minimized in areas that are more important to show accurately.
C) parallels of latitude and meridians of longitude should intersect at right angles.
D) the globe is projected onto a cone,with minimized distortion along the arc or arcs where the cone intersects with the globe.
