A hill may be shown by using contour lines to represent height, and also, on some maps, by using hill-side shading.

On a topographic map, you can identify a hill by examining the contour lines. Contour lines that form closed loops are an indication of a hill or a mountain. The closer the contour lines are together, the steeper the slope of the hill.
