each contour line represents an equal value, so the closer the lines the steeper the slope
Not sure if these are the ones that you are looking for, but here are three:Parallel lines do not intersect.Parallel lines lie in the same plane.parallel lines have the same slope.
All lines are equal since all lines are infinetly long. If you are talking about line segments than you can quantify if they are equal by looking at the number. Two parallel lines will NEVER cross each other though
Not necessarily. They could be skew lines, and satisfy these conditions.
parallel lines are everywhere. They are on the desk you are at, the windows, the very monitor you are looking at. Any two lines that run next to each other are parallel, and without this, very few things would be straight.
Of the the seven letters, ABCDEFG, F and G have no lines of symmetry. However,Êall of them could have lines of symmetry if theyÊwere presented in three dimensions.
The closer the contour lines the steeper the slope.
The area with the steepest slope is the area where the contour lines are bunched closest together.
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.
Where the slope is steep the contour lines will come close together.
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.
A contour line (also known as isopleth) on a topographic map connects points of equal elevation or depth. The steepest way up or down is in the direction perpendicular to the contour line at any given point. This gradient on a topographic map is at its greatest when the lines are close together, thus the slope is steepest. Note that a contour map does not have to be topographic. Any value mapped in two or three dimensions such as temperature, barometric pressure, or wind speed can have contour lines connecting adjacent points of equal value. Again, moving away from a contour line in a perpendicular direction will yield the greatest change in the value of the quality being recorded.
contour lines all ways point up hill or up stream
Contour lines help for you to see different elevations in certain areas. Contour lines could be useful to hikers to help plan their next hiking trip by giving them an idea of what the land is like.
Contour lines are used in Topography to show the elevation of the land on a map. When looking at a map the contour lines look very similar to how a calm lake would appear.
index contour lines have numbers contour lines dont
The darker contour lines on map are called index contour lines. Numbers that indicate elevations are often written on these lines.
Hachured contour lines are contour lines with ticks pointing downslope that indicate a depression on a topographic map.
