Jamil is looking at two objects he knows are the same size. However, it appears that one of the objects looks smaller than the other. Therefore, Jamil concludes the smaller objects is father away from him than the one that appears larger. Jamil is using what method to determine depth?
Correct answer: B. Relative size
- A. Linear perspective
- B. Relative size
- C. Interposition
- D. Accommodation
Explanation
Relative size is a monocular depth cue: when two familiar objects are known to be equal in size, the one forming the smaller retinal image is judged to be farther away. Linear perspective instead uses apparently converging parallel lines.
