The answer would be higher. Any place inside a hachure line is a higher elevation than the hachure line. These lines are concentric lines which indicate a closed depression. These lines show orientation of slope and they provide an idea to the steepness of that area.

Answer:

Option (2)

Explanation:

In a topographic map, the hachure lines are generally shown inside a small circular contour line. This contour line indicates the lowest elevation or it represents a basin or a depression, and the hachure marks depict the slope of that basin that starts from the surface of that basin and extends downward.

All the things that are present within this basin contour (lowest contour) is lower than the level of this contour line.

Also, all the places that are present inside the hachure lines are at a lower elevation compared to the hachure line.

Thus, the correct answer is option (2).
