Where does the quadrangle name appear on a map?

• A. Upper left corner
• B. Upper right corner
• C. Lower left corner
• D. Lower right corner

Answer: (B)

The quadrangle name is placed in the upper right corner of the map’s border. This location makes the sheet’s title easy to spot in the header area, where other metadata like scale and date live, so you can quickly identify which specific quadrangle you’re looking at when you’re handling multiple sheets. Standardizing the title position helps keep maps consistent and readable across the whole series.
