1. The name of the quadrangle is Beverly Hills Quadrangle.
2. The adjacent quadrangles are Canoga Park, Van Nuys, Burbank, Topanga, Hollywood, Venice and Inglewood.
3. The quadrangle was first created in 1966.
4. The datum used was North American Datum of 1927 and National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929.
5. The scale of the map is 1:24,000.
6.
a.1/24,000 =5cm/D
D=24,000x5cm=120,000cm
D=1,200m

5 centimeters on the map is equivalent to 120,000cm on the ground.
b. 1/24,000=5in/D
D=24,000x5in.=120,000in.
D=1.894 miles

5 inches on the map is equivalent to 1.894 miles on the ground.
c.1/24,000=D/1mi.
1/24,000=D/15840in.
24,000D=15840in.
D=0.66in.

One mile on the ground is equivalent to .66 inches on the map.
d.1/24,000=D/3km
1/24,000=D/300,000cm
24,000D=300,000cm
D=12.5cm

3 kilometers on the ground is equivalent to 300,000 centimeters on the map.
7. The contour interval on the map is 20 feet.
8.
a. The approximate geographic coordinate for the Public Affairs building with respect to degrees/minutes/seconds is 34 degrees 1 minute 37 seconds North and 118 degrees 29 minutes and 11 seconds West. the approximate geographic coordinate for the Public Affairs building with respect to deminal degrees is 34.177 North and 118.486 West
b.The approximate geographic coordinates for the Santa Monica Pier with respect to degrees/minutes/seconds are 34 degrees 0 minutes and 31 seconds North and 118 degrees 29 minutes and 52 seconds West. The approximate geographic coordinates for the Santa Monica Pier with respect to decimal degrees are 34.0086 degrees North and 118.497 degrees West.
c. The approximate geographic coordinates for the Upper Franklin Canyon Reservoir with respect to degrees/minutes/seconds are 34 degrees, 7 minutes, 10 seconds North and 118 degrees 24 minutes and 37 seconds West. The approximate geographic coordinates for the Upper Franklin Canyon Reservoir with respect to decimal degrees are 34.1195 degrees North latitude and 118.5028 degrees West longitude
9.
a. The approximate elevation for Greystone Mansion is 560 feet or 170.688 meters
b. The approximate elevation for Woodlawn Cemetery is 140 feet or 42.672 meters.
c. The approximate elevation for Crestwood Hills Park is 600 ft or 182.88 meters.
10. The UTM zone of the Beverly Hills map is zone 11.
11. The UTM coordines for the lower left corner of the map is -361500m East and 3763000m North.
12. 1000000 square meters are contained within each cell(square) of the UTM gridlines.
13. (see top)
14. The magnetic delination of the map is 14 degrees.
15. The direction of the water flow in the intermittent stream between the 405 freeway and Stone Canyon Reservoir is North to South.
