Know this fact.
Rift valleys were formed as a result of Faulting. When the rocks on the surface are stretched by tension forces or squeezed by compression they break. The rocks between the faults may sink to form a rift valley.

The steep sides of the rift valley are called escarpments. In the rift valley there can form lakes and the lakes are called rift valley lakes. An example of a rift valley lake is Lake Albert in Uganda.
