So that program has an ability to just type in the scale of the map 1:20 or so and you then can measure accurately. However sometimes you get a map that is photo copied or scanned and the scale does not match. You can either go about the algebra way with a ruler measuring the lines and figure it out or just plug in new numbers in 20 section until you find the correct scale.
That's all I did was keep entering scales until I got it to match the 10' segment. As this elevation did not have a scale. I turns out the scale is 1:24.
