Scientific paper

For a sample of 114 northern galaxies with angular diameters greater than 2 arcmin and apparent axial ratios greater than 7, relations are discussed between their global parameters: the inner motion amplitude W, the blue luminosity, the linear diameter, and the neutral hydrogen mass. Taken as a distance indicator for the given W, these parameters exhibit nearly the same efficiency. Outside the Local Supercluster the linear diameter of the flat edge-on galaxy produces a standard deviation about 25 percent as a distance estimate. The total mass-to-luminosity ratio of flat galaxies increases when their mean surface brightness decreases.
