Solution

2) Up and to the left

Standin on the hanging wall, we see the relative movement of the foot wall (which bears the fault plane) upwards and towards the left.

4) Thrust fault.

A low angle thrust fault aids in the formation of an allochthonous block, klippe (allochthon isolated from rock), fensters/ windows (hole created within allochthon which aids in viewing the allochthon beneath an alllochthon).

6) Compression.

Compressive stresses are associated with strike-slip fault.

8) Strike-slip fault with a releasing bend.

Strike-slip transtensional normal faults are charactersitic of sag ponds and sag bends.
