Scale is correct =
standard parallels
Scale is smallest =
Parallel of origin
Isogonal =
Same magnetic variation
Aclinic =
Zero magnetic dip
Agonic =
Zero magnetic variation
Gradient percentage =
Height diff x100 / Distance
Gradient degrees =
Arctg x Height diff / Distance

perpendicular =
progress
parallel =
deviation from track
Oriented to the TRUE NORTH =>
Easier to read information (heights, frequencies, aeronautical and topographical info).
Oriented to the TRACK NORTH =>
Easier to track progress, line feature or deviation.

Great circle line
constant true or magnetic heading:
Rhumb line
Difference between initial or final GC and RLT
is Conversion Angle
Difference between initial GC track and final GCtrack?
is Earth convergency
Chart convergency at Lambert charts with latitude?
Doesn’t change with latitude and stays constant.
