1. Search for "Stone Mountain Park, Georgia" and zoom into \( \sim 10,000 \) feet eye altitude. What is the latitude of the top of the mountain? Use the green-roofed buildings as reference points for the top and location questions that follow. a. \( 33^{\circ} 48^{\prime} 20^{\prime \prime} \mathrm{N} \) b. \( 32^{\circ} 48^{\prime} S \) c. \( 84^{\circ} 08^{\prime} 43^{\prime \prime} \mathrm{E} \) d. \( 84^{\circ} 08^{\prime} 43^{\prime \prime W} \) 2. What is the longitude of Stone Mountain? a. \( 33^{\circ} 48^{\prime} 20^{\prime \prime} \mathrm{N} \) b. \( 32^{\circ} 48^{\prime} \mathrm{S} \) c. \( 84^{\circ} 08^{\prime} 43^{\prime \prime} \mathrm{E} \) d. \( 84^{\circ} 08^{\prime} 43^{\text {'W }} \) 3. Locate the lake to the east, between Stone Mountain and a golf course. What is the elevation of the lake in feet? a. 800 feet b. 841 feet c. 833 feet d. 892 feet 4. Using the Ruler tool/Polygon setting, measure the area of granite exposed at Stone Mt., in square miles. The white areas of the park are granite, and easily seen everywhere except on the NW side, where you can estimate its location among the trees. a. \( \sim 2.29 \) sq. mi. b. \( \sim .73 \) sq. mi. c. \( \sim 1 \) sq. mi. d. \( \sim, 28 \) sq. \( \mathrm{mi} \). 5. Using the Ruler/Polygon setting, what is the perimeter of the area you just measured - the distance around the base of the mountain? a. \( -4.1 \mathrm{mi} \). b. less than \( 3 \mathrm{mi} \). c. \( \sim 3.83 \mathrm{mi} \). d. \( \sim 3.25 \mathrm{mi} \). 6. Now find the parking lot and trailhead on the NW side of Stone Mt. What is the bearing from the start of the walking trail up the mountain to the buildings at the top? a. \( 32^{\circ} \) b. \( 77^{\circ} \) c. \( 112^{\circ} \) d. \( 292^{\circ} \) 7. If you decided instead to walk from the trailhead to the top of the mountain, how far would you have to walk, in miles (use Ruler/Line setting)? a. \( 0.56 \) mile b. 1 mile c. \( 1.20 \) miles d. \( 1.87 \) miles 8. How far is this distance in kilometers? a. \( 0.5 \) kilometers b. \( 0.9 \) kilometers c. \( 1.6 \) kilometers d. \( 1.9 \) kilometers 9. Overall, would you be walking uphill or downhill? a. No change in elevation b. Slightly uphill c. Slightly downhill 11. What is the gradient of your walk? a. \( \sim 0.003 \) b. \( \sim 0.05 \) c. \( \sim 0.1 \) d. \( \sim 1 \)
