ANSWER: Plane dropped 6097 feet in altitude.
BECAUSE: An airplane is at point A from where it continued to descend by 30° for an approximate distance of 2 miles
∠ACB = Angle of descent = 30°
Distance BC = 2 miles
Let the plane dropped the altitude = h miles
Now tan 30° =


h = 1.155 miles
h ≈ 1.16 miles
Since 1 mile = 5280 feet
1.15 miles = 5280×1.16 feet
= 6097 feet
Therefore, the plane dropped by 6097 feet vertically.

g Suppose you are rasterizing a triangle with vertices (1, 1), (5, 1), and (2, 9), and the intensity values (e.g., redness) of t
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

6.333

Step-by-step explanation:

Our triangle vertices are

(1,1)(5,1)(2,9)

We are to perform interpolation at point(3,5)

x and y values are interpolated

On vertices (5,1)(2,9)

x = 3

x1 = 5

X2 = 2

Y1 = 1

Y2 = 9

Formula for interpolation

Y = [y1+(x-x1)(y2-y1)]/x2-x

Y = 1+(3-5)(9-1)/2-5

Y = 1+[-2*8/-3]

Y = 1+16/3

From here we use use LCM to get:

19/3 = 6.333
