Pros and Cons of Different Map Projections

What are the positive and negative features of different types of map projections? After reading three different types of map projections (conical, cylindrical, and flat-plane), write an essay in which you explain the positive features of each map as well as any problems with the projection such as distortions, incorrect sizes, or a change to latitude and/or longitude. Support your discussion with evidence from the text(s).
