Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Small circles are circles on the surface of the Earth that are not the Equator but are parallel to it. The size of a small circle decreases as it moves away from the Equator towards the poles. Therefore, a circle at 89°S is closer to the South Pole and smaller than circles at 5°N, 46°E, or 90°W, which are closer to the Equator.
