Is it true that every point on a contour line is at a different elevation?

No. Every point on a contour line has the same elevation.


Why isnt the highest point on a hill or a mountain represented by a contour line?

The highest elevation point is represented by a number...number of feet above sea level. At the very top, there is a point/peak. In order to make sense, a contour line has to represent a relative elevation all the way around the circumference of the mountain. The lines are not circles and where they are wavy, this indicates places where the mountain juts out.


Is a point outside a contour line higher or lower than the contour line?

lower.


Every point on a contour line is at a different elevation?

What is the difference between and index contour and a regular contour line?

An index contour is a thicker contour line that is labeled with the elevation of that contour. It usually appears every fifth contour line and helps to quickly identify elevation changes on a topographic map. Regular contour lines are thinner and connect points of equal elevation.


A spot elevation of 1237 feet is shown on a topographic map If the contour interval of themap is 20 feet what is the value of the first contour line below the spot elevation?

The first contour line below the spot elevation of 1237 feet would be at 1220 feet (1237 feet - 20 feet = 1217 feet).
