reverse fault. but that is when the foot wall moves down, the hanging wall moves up. in a strike-slip fault, they slide past each other, the foot wall and hanging wall are not there because it has to be like this to be a reverse or normal fault:

hanging wall

----------foot wall

-----------

in this diagram, the foot wall has moved down making the hanging wall move up to form a reverse fault.

remember this on tests:

the hanging wall is always above the fault line:

/hanging wall above

foot wall below /
