The closer the contour lines the steeper the slope.


What area of this map has the steepest slope?

The area with the steepest slope on a map is typically where the contour lines are closest together, indicating a rapid change in elevation over a short distance. Look for areas where the contour lines are tightly spaced or where the lines bend sharply, as this suggests a steep slope.


How could you find the steepest slope by looking at contour lines?

each contour line represents an equal value, so the closer the lines the steeper the slope


Which side of the land on the map is steepest. A.North side B.East side C.West side D.South side?

Maps don't work like that. The steepest land could be anywhere. You must view the contour lines and follow them to find what is steep or not.


What do hachures on a contour indicate?

Hachure lines are a form of representation for showing the contours on a map. They point towards the steepest part of the slope. Hachure lines are an old form of showing relief, and less useful, scientifically, than contour lines.
