-flat map
-conic projection
-Mercator projection
-equal-area projection

Answer:

Mercator projection and equal-area projection

Explanation:

Mercator offers constant linear scale in every direction around any point making it a conformal map projection because it keeps the shape of small objects. As a result, the Mercator projection inflates the size of objects away from the equator thereby  landmasses is only accurate at the equator.

In equal area projection, features are mostly distorted because it preserves the area and no map can preserve both area and shape
