Neco 2023 Geography Question 42
Practice objective / multiple choice question 42 from the 2023 Neco Geography examination.
A topographic map has a contour interval of 20 m and a vertical exaggeration of 1.5. The map scale is 1:25,000 (1 cm on the map equals 250 m on the ground). The straight‑line map distance between points \(A\) and \(B\) is 5 cm. Point \(A\) lies on the 4th contour above the base contour and point \(B\) lies on the 9th contour above the base. Because of the terrain, the actual walking distance between the two points is 1.2 times the straight‑line ground distance. Determine the true average slope (in percent) between \(A\) and \(B\).
