← HistoryWhich consequence resulted when Alhazen's geometric construction of perspective was inaccurately scaled?
A)Errors in angular height calculations✓
B)Chromatic aberration within lenses magnified
C)Misalignment within segmented mirror arrays
D)Polarization effects became non-negligible
💡 Explanation
Computational inaccuracies during the scaling phase affected the accuracy of angular calculations, because the method relies on precise correspondence of visual angles to geometrical shapes. Therefore, the calculated heights were off , rather than chromatic aberration, mirror issues, or light.
