Why does a hill have steep sides?

A hill has steep sides because of how the hill formed it formed with steep sides. I don't agree. Hills have steep sides because of the Earth's plates. When the plates push against each other, they sometimes push up, creating a hill or a mountain. Whether the hill has steep sides or not depends on the factors such as weathering and erosion, and on quite simply how it forms.
