Answer 1

Answer:

A table of contents usually includes the titles or descriptions of first-level headings (chapters in longer works), and often includes second-level headings (sections or A-heads) within the chapters as well, and occasionally even includes third-level headings (subsections or B-heads) within the sections as well.

Answer 2

Answers

outline numbering defines the hierarchy of heading in a document. hierarchy can be numbered or not ; typically the first level in a booklength documents are next level of headings after chapter titles, which may be numbered but lower level headings are not numbered

example

Some heading styles (such as those commonly used in engineering documents) number each heading level, for example 1, 1.1, 1.2, 2, 2.1, and so on. When chapters or sections are added or deleted, the numbering is automatically changed.
