With the tick mark (c) placed on the edge of the paper at the end of the extension scale, slide the paper to the right. Remember the distance in the extension is always read from right to left. Align tick mark (c) with zero and then measure the distance between tick marks (a) and (c).
1. Identify the scale of the map. The map scale is the ratio (1:50,000) of the distance on the map (1 inch) compared to the distance on the ground. (usually 50,000 inches). 2. Convert a straight-line map. distance to miles, meters, or yards.
To start measuring a distance: Press the ‘Measure distance’ button (button turns blue) Click onto the map to set the starting point. Every click will add a point for measurement.
