8- A topographic map has a scale of 1"= 20' and contour lines at 10' intervals. If the perpendicular distance between the 150' elevation line and 160' elevation line measures 1 2" on the map, what is the horizontal distance on the ground (in feet) from the 150' line to the (theoretical) %3D elevation of 152'?
