    The water sports ramp shown in the photo below is slightly tilted as it sits on the river bottom, which is neither horizontal nor Alat. To eliminate the effect of the tilt in the equations derived in Demo_7-1 you will need to determine an equation of the straight bottom edge of the ramp. You can reconstruct the actual dimensions of the ramp as long as one of its actual dimensions is known, as shown below.

    Required:
    - Fit a 3rd order polynomial equation to the given coordinates of the points dening a prole of the launch surface

    Launchsurface

    - Fit an exponential equation, y(x) = a0 + a1*exp(a2*x)


    to these coordinates

    - Fit a straight line to the given coordinates of the


    points dening the bottom edge of the ramp

    - Find the directional angle of the bottom edge - Calculate the coordinates of points scanned on the launch surface, for the case if the ramp was oating, i.e., if its bottom edge was horizontal - Implement a button-activated macro for tting the 3rd order polynomial above Bottomedge
