What is the difference between a foot-wall fault and the hanging wall fault?

Take the fault as an inclined plane with the earths surface as the horizontal plane.The foot wall side of the fault is always located to the side where the plane of the fault and the horizontal forms an acute angle.The hanging wall side of the fault is always located to the side of the fault where the plane of the fault and the horizontal makes an obtuse angle.The terminology takes no regard to the direction of motion of the blocks either side of the fault. Thus for a dipping fault, the Hanging Wall is the block positioned over the fault and the Foot Wall is the block positioned under it.
