On a topographic map, you can identify a hill by examining the contour lines. Contour lines that form closed loops are an indication of a hill or a mountain. The closer the contour lines are together, the steeper the slope of the hill.

What topographic map that may show a hill with a volcanic crater is?

A topographic map showing a hill with a volcanic crater would likely be labeled as a "volcanic cone" or "volcanic feature" on the map. These maps typically have contour lines that show the elevation changes of the land, allowing you to visualize the shape of the hill and the crater. Look for areas with concentric circles of contour lines, indicating the circular shape of the crater.
