Answer:

The Stereographic projection is a type of map projection which would be used to locate the other side of the lake which cannot be seen.

Step-by-step explanation:

So basically Stereographic projection is defined as a particular kind of mapping in which it projects the entire sphere into a fine plane map.

Every projection in the map is defined on every part of the sphere but except one point which is called as the projection point.

These maps are considered as smooth and bijective.
