how do i calculate contour line? here is one triangle of the contour map

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1353134091614:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did you get 42.5 below 40.5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it was written down on my map

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm doesnt make sense... i find the scale factor

OpenStudy (anonymous):

126 is the true height difference?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and i had to measure the triangle to find the elevation which i measured out to be 126

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@chemENGINEER do you know how to do this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the thing is i dont really understand your question... maybe if i had the original question then i can do it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i measure the triangles 1:20" scale

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i'll try and upload it tomorrow because its huge

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is contour interpolation @AbhimanyuPudi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the elevation from 42.5 to 40.5 is correct in w/c you got elevation=2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

average slope = rise / run

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do i do next?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do i multiply the 2 by 126 and divide by 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm i think you need to give all the info or the whole prob and pictures here, look like theyre incomplete
