- Suppose you have two maps of USA of different
- scales. Now you place the smaller map inside
- the bigger map such that it falls completely
- within it.
-
- Condider each point on the map to be a distinct
- city!!
-
- QUESTION: Are there any city/cities on the
- smaller map which will coincide with the
- city/cities on the bigger map? If so why?
