Best Answer

Ridge lines is a concept in Micro Economics related to Isoquants (which shows different combination of inputs for the same level of output). However, after a certain point Isoquant begins to slope upward, if there are 2 or more isoquants then there would be similar points on the other isoquants too... on joining these points, you get the ridge lines.

Note: the point from where Isoquant slopes upward is a point where the marginal product of one of the input is negative.
