Which type of map is made by projecting points and lines from a globe onto a cone?

Conic Projection. With this type of map, there is a particular latitude at which the cone touches the globe. Using this projection, there is little distortion of elements around the areas along the latitudinal line but the top and bottom of such projection displays visible distortion. Nonetheless, their simplicity in construction has made it the preferred method used in large scale maps.
