Fragmented lines drawn in relief maps are known as :

  • A.Contours
  • B.Rhumb lines
  • C.Form lines
  • D.Graticules

Answer: C

Broken lines in relief maps are Form lines.

Form lines are approximate contours, drawn as broken or dashed lines, where the ground has not been surveyed accurately. They show the general shape of the relief without exact heights.

Contours are continuous lines joining points of equal surveyed height. Rhumb lines are lines of constant compass bearing, and graticules are the network of parallels and meridians, neither of which shows relief.
