Hill shading conveys relief by

  • A.simulating light falling across the terrain
  • B.joining all the points of equal elevation
  • C.colouring the land by its height above sea level
  • D.marking the steepest slope with an arrow

Answer: A

Modelled illumination, conventionally from the north-west, produces a shaded picture that the eye reads as three-dimensional. It conveys the shape of the land immediately but cannot be measured, so contours usually accompany it.
