Identify each fault by: 1) Draw a line on the trace of fault(s); 2) Determine if picture is in cross section or map view; 3) If in cross section label hanging wall and footwall; 4) Draw arrows to represent motion on either side of the fault; 5) Label normal, reverse, or strike-slip; 6) If strike-slip state whether it is left-lateral or right-lateral; 7) If normal or reverse state whether faulting causes thickening (through compression) or thinning (through extension) of the crust.
