A tilted bed is said to have a _, describing the angle that the bed forms with the horizontal plane--and a _,the compass direction that lies at right angles to the tilted bed.

A tilted bed is said to have a _dip____, describing the angle that the bed forms with the horizontal plane--and a strike, the compass direction that lies at right angles to the tilted bed.

Explanation:

The dip of a tilted bed, describes the acute angle a tilted bed makes with the horizontal plane, by stating the numerical value of the angle from 0 to 90 degrees as well as pointing out the orientation of the downward dipping direction in the orientation towards N, S, E, W

The strike line represents the line formed to represent the intersection of a feature of a bed such as the bed rock surface with a horizontal plane.

The dip and the strike line of a tilted bed are always at right angles to each other on a geologic map.

A tilted bed is said to have a _____, describing the angle that the bed forms with the horizontal plane--and a _____,the compass direction that lies at right angles to the tilted bed.
