a) (ii) What is the direction of the settlement of Mambanda from the settlement of Ebono?
To determine the direction, we look at the compass rose on the map. Ebono is located to the southwest of Mambanda. Therefore, Mambanda is to the Northeast of Ebono.

a) (iii) What is the bearing of the settlement of Ebono from the settlement of Mambanda?

a) (iv) Calculate the distance between the settlement of Ebono and the settlement of Mambanda in kilometers.
The straight-line distance on the map between Ebono and Mambanda is approximately 4.5 cm.
Using the scale 1:50,000, where 1 cm on the map represents 50,000 cm in reality:
Distance in cm = 4.5 cm × 50,000 = 225,000 cm
Convert cm to meters: 225,000 cm / 100 cm/m = 2,250 m
Convert meters to kilometers: 2,250 m / 1000 m/km = 2.25 km.
