This is the same type of fault and folds you saw on the last page. How does this type of fault appear to offset the two parts of the green layer?  Does it change the distance between the two exposures of the green layer on the displaced block?  Are your answers to these questions different than they would be for the eroded dip-slip fault you observed before?

Imagine eroding the right side of the front block (that is, the block in front of the fault) until it was even with the right side of the block behind the fault.  Then sketch on the worksheet (Ft-6) the entire block after such erosion.
