1) Beverly Hills Quadrangle

2) The adjacent quadrangles are Canoga Plark, Van Nuys, Burbank, Topanga, Hollywood, Inglewood, Venice and 'Pacific Ocean'

3) The first quadrangle was created in 1966.

4) Datum is mathematical model of Earth. National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 was used to create the map.

5) The scale of map is 1:24000

6)a) The scale is 1/24000
    1/24000 = 5/x cm
    x=1200m
   
   b) 1/24000=5/x in
        x = 1.893 miles

   c) 1/24000 =  x/1
       x= 2.64 in

   d) 1/24000=x/3
        x=12.5 cm


7) Contour interval of map is 20 feet.

8) The approximate coordinates are
a)
b) 34 degrees 28 seconds N and 118 degrees 28 minutes 58 seconds
c) 34 degrees 6 minutes 11 seconds North and 118 degrees 24 minutes 43 seconds
   
9) The approximate elevation of the following are
a)  570 feet
b)  140 feet
c)  680 feet

10)The UTM zone of the map is zone 11

11) The UTM coordinates of lower left corner of the map are 3763000m northing and 362000 easting.

12) 1000000 square meters are contained within each cell of the UTM gridlines.


13)


14) The magnetic declination of the map is 14 degrees.

15) Water flows to the south to Stone Canyon Reservoir.
