Assessment: JAMB UTME - Geography - 2007 Subject: Geography

Question 1 Report

A slope is said to be even when the contours are
Answer Details
When contours are equally spaced, the slope is said to be even. This means that the difference in elevation between each contour line is the same. For example, if contour lines on a map are drawn at 10-meter intervals, an even slope means that the elevation difference between each contour line is 10 meters. An even slope can be a gentle slope or a steep slope, but what makes it even is the uniform spacing between contour lines.
