The x inside the contour lines represents the elevation or value of the variable being mapped, such as elevation on a topographic map or temperature on a weather map. This value indicates the specific level at that particular point on the map.

What are conour lines?

Contour lines are used when you have spatial data, with the x,y values identifying a particular point and z is the value at that point. It could be elevation above sea level, temperature, pressure or any other measurable property. Contour lines identify where the data suggests equal values should exist. On an elevation map, contour lines show the elevation of equal values points. A 50 ft contour line would go through all points where the data suggest should be at 50 ft elevation. See related links.

No, parallel lines are the ones that never cross each other. Perpendicular lines form an x.

Why is the highest point of a hill represented by an x not a contour line?

Contour lines are spaced at a regular height above sea level - every 50 metres, for example. The highest point of a hill may be just above the highest contour line. Therefore a spot or summit height symbol may be used to mark the highest point on the map.


How do you use slope to determine a potato?

If two lines are perpendicular to eachother, they have right angles. The format for perpendicular lines is: x is perpendicular to -1/x. This is called the opposite reciprocal.
