Solution

The correct option is A Relative height of the feature
Relative height is the height of a feature with reference to the height of the surrounding land and not to the mean sea level. It is represented by the height with a small ‘r’. Benchmark height is the height of a place actually marked on a stone pillar, rock or shown on a building as a permanent reference. It is written as BM 62.3 m.
