into two halves. The half on the left represents the area found in the
Northern Hemisphere. The Southern Hemisphere is located on the
right. The blue line represents the central meridian for this zone.
Locations measurements for this zone are calculated relative to a false
origin. In the Northern Hemisphere, this origin is located 500,000
meters west of the equator. The Southern Hemisphere UTM
measurements are determined relative to an origin located at
10,000,000 meters south and 500,000 meters west of the equator and
central meridian, respectively.

How to make scales for plans and maps?
To represent distances you have measured in the field on a piece
of paper, you need ______them down. This means that you must
reduce the size of the distances proportionally according to a scale.
The scale expresses ________which exists between the distance
shown on a drawing or map and the actual distance across the
ground.
For example:
1 cm on the plan represents 20 m (or 2000 cm)_______, or
scale 1:2000.
1 cm on the map represents 100 m on the ground, or scale
1:10000.
1 cm on the map represents 1250 m on the ground, or scale
1:125000.
There are three _______ of expressing the scale of a drawing:
As a numerical equivalent such as " 1 cm = 20 m", which you
should read as "1 cm on the plan represents 20 m on the ground";
As a ratio such as " 1: 2 000" which you should read as " 1 cm
on the plan represents 2 000 cm = 20 m on the ground";
graphically, with a line that is marked off into drawing distances
that correspond to convenient units of _______on the ground.
