If you were standing on the east side of the feature that has its highest point of elevation at 6,168 (shown in the yellow square box), what graphic would most represent the shape or profile of the geographical feature?


Provide an approximate elevation for points W, X, Y, and Z (Z is pointing right to the line).

Answer 1

A contour line of a function of two variables is a curve along which the function has a constant value, so that the curve joins points of equal value. It is a plane section of the three-dimensional graph of the function f parallel to the x, y plane. 

Answer 2

A contour line of a function of two variables is a curve along which the function has a constant value, so that the curve joins points of equal value. It is a plane section of the three-dimensional graph of the function f parallel to the x, y plane
