Contour lines} & \text{ lines of equal elevation that display height, shape, and steepness} \\\text{3. Hachure marks} & \text{ teeth-like marks on contour lines that indicate a depression} \\\text{4. Topographic map} & \text{ also known as a contour map: shows shape, steepness} \\\end{array}$ The image below shows how a topographic map displays contours, contour intervals, and hachure marks.

The contour interval is 20 m and you are on the 340 m contour.
