Detailed explanation-1: -The contour interval of a contour map is the difference in elevation between successive contour lines. The gradient of the function is always perpendicular to the contour lines. When the lines are close together the magnitude of the gradient is large: the variation is steep.
Detailed explanation-2: -Each contour line represents a specific elevation and connects all the points that have that elevation. Every fifth contour line is bolded and labeled with its elevation.
Detailed explanation-3: -Question:-the difference in elevation between adjacent contour line is called the contour interval. Look at the bottom of this map to indentify the contour interval. contour interval:-the difference in elevation between adjacent contour line is called the contour interval.
Detailed explanation-4: -A topographic map is a two-dimensional representation of three-dimensional features on the Earth’s surface. Topographical maps use contour lines to show the elevation of different features, such as rivers, lakes, roads, and buildings.
