The right answer is D.


The slopes are differentiated by the following criteria:


The inclination;


The orientation;


*The shape of the slope.




The slope can be measured by degrees or percentages. In the mountains, it is necessary to measure the inclination of a slope by degrees and not by percentages of inclination.




to make the conversion it is necessary to consider that a slope of 45 ° equals a slope of 100%.
