What is the definition of hachured contour lines?
Hachured contour lines are contour lines with ticks pointing downslope that indicate a depression on a topographic map.
What is the name of the line on a map that joins places of equal height?
The name of the line on a map that joins places of equals height is "the contour." Contour lines are lines of equal elevation, whereas isohypse are lines of equal geopotential height.
Explain contour lines and contour intervals and what they tell you about a topographic map?

What are lines on a map labeled with elevation?
Called both Elevation Lines or Contour Lines
What do contour lines on a topographic map show?
They show the relief of an area. They will have height values attached to them. The distance between contour lines gives an impression of gradient. The closer they are together, the steeper the slope.
What contour lines show on a topographic map?
Contour lines show levels of elevation, where there are hills and valleys on a map

Contour lines that touch or overlap on a topographic map indicate a
The heaviest contour lines on a topographic map are?
The heaviest contour lines on a topographic map indicate the highest elevation on the map. These lines represent the peaks of mountains, hills, or other elevated land features.
What is the lines on the map labled with the elevation?
"contour lines"
What is the definition of hachured contour lines?

How do contour lines show elevation?
The darker contour lines on map are called index contour lines. Numbers that indicate elevations are often written on these lines.
What happens on a topographic map the closer the contour lines get?
The closer the contour lines, the steeper is the slope.
What is the purpose of contour on topographic map?
Contour lines show elevation.
What is the difference between any two contour lines on a map?
Contour lines on a map represent points of equal elevation. The difference in elevation between any two contour lines is called the contour interval, which is usually indicated on the map legend. By knowing the contour interval, you can determine the steepness of the terrain in that specific area.
What is a topigraphical map?
a TOPOGRAPHICAL MAP shows the contour of the lines
What is a contoured chart?
A contour chart is a map that shows contour lines. A good example of this is a topographic map.
