The movie on the left shows a normal fault and the one on the right shows a reverse fault. Rotate the two movies so that as you look along the fault (that is, look parallel to the fault), the fault dips to the left.  For both blocks, sketch on the worksheet (Ft-2a, Ft-2b) the vertical face nearest you. These views show how the two types of faults would appear if exposed on a cliff.  

If you need a review, simply click the previous buttons to scroll back through the pages and examine the blocks again.
