The difference between an outline and a contour line is location. An outline is used to draw the outermost form on an object, while a contour line is used to depict details inside the form of an object.

What is a contor line?
On a map, a contour line connects points of the same height below or above sea level. The elevation would stay the same if you followed a contour line.
What color is a contour line on a map?
orange
Will elevations of 300' and 350' respectively occur on the same contour line isoline on a topographic map?
no, it will not be on the same contour line (isoline) because 300 n 350 is 2 different elevations
What line on a map connects the points of equal elevation?
Contour lines or also known as isohypses, connect points of equal elevation on a map. Contour lines can be curved, straight or a mixture of both. The lines on a map describe the intersection of a real or hypothetical surface with one or more horizontal planes.
On a topographic map how would you show an island in the ocean with an elevation of 80 feet if the contour interval is 10 feet?
You would just add 10 every contour line you pass until you get to the number 80.
What is the difference of outline and implied lines?
An outline is the contour (edges) of a drawn or painted object. An implied line can be a series of dots or a broken line that reads as a line.
What is contour line in art?

What is the Change from one contour line to the next?
The difference in elevation between one contour line and the next is called relief. Hope this helped. ;)
The elevation difference between one contour line and the next is called?

Define contour line?
A contour is the outline of a figure or body, the edge or line that defines or bounds a shape or object
What is the difference between contour lines and relief?
Contour line connect points of equal elevation on a map, whereas relief is the difference in elevation from the highest and lowest on a map.
