Answer:

A raised, flat area that is higher than the land that surrounds it is a plateau.

Explanation:

    Plateau is a form of relief consisting of raised areas with a more or less level ridge, with a certain degree of fullness. They are usually above 300 meters of sea level and are bordered on one side by a recessed surface.

Plateaus can also be defined by plains that are high on hills.
