On a map the scaled distance between points A and B is 33.45 cm, and the given elevation of the two points are 815.26 m and 836.45 m, respectively. Assuming uniformity of slope between the two points, calculate the distance from point A on the map where each of the following contour lines will cross the line joining the two points: 820, 825, 830, and 835 m

Which of the following is false about the characteristics of contour lines? Select the correct response: Contours are perpendicular to the direction of maximum slope. The direction of rainfall run-off in a map area can be determined from this characteristic. Contour lines are irregularly spaced on uniformly sloping ground. Contour lines tend to parallel streams. Rivers usually have a flatter gradient than do intermittent streams. Each contour line must close upon itself either within or outside the borders of the map. A series of closed contour lines represents either a hill or depression. The elevations of the index contour lines will indicate which series represents a hill and which represents a depression.
