The further the Isoquant is from the origin, the greater will be the level of output (i.e a higher isoquant represent a higher level of output) Two Isoquants can never intersect each other Isoquants always slopes downward
yes
indifferent curves are convex to their origin, they do not intersect, and have a negative slope
ridge lines is the combination of isoquants
Ridge lines is a concept in Micro Economics related to Isoquants (which shows different combination of inputs for the same level of output). However, after a certain point Isoquant begins to slope upward, if there are 2 or more isoquants then there would be similar points on the other isoquants too... on joining these points, you get the ridge lines. Note: the point from where Isoquant slopes upward is a point where the marginal product of one of the input is negative.

ridge lines is the combination of isoquants
A set is said to be convex with respect to the origin if the line segment between any two points in the set lies entirely within the set. In simpler terms, for any two points within the set, all the points on the line joining them are also within the set.
producers equilibrium is achieved with isoquants and isocost curves

this economy's ppc is convex to the origin
production possibilities curve convex to the origin. Elson Mendoza was here.
because all factors of production cannot be equally efficiently be used to produce one product than the other...
