What is the lateral distance of an object or ground feature measured from a survey line?

What is the lateral distance of an object or ground feature measured from a survey line? Correct Answer Offset

An offset is the lateral distance of an object or ground feature measured from a survey line. When the angle of the offset is 90°, it is called perpendicular offset.

We usually use feature normalization before using the Gaussian kernel in SVM. What is true about feature normalization?
1. We do feature normalization so that new feature will dominate other
2. Some times, feature normalization is not feasible in case of categorical variables
3. Feature normalization always helps when we use Gaussian kernel in SVM
Mohan traveled five cities (A, B, C, D and E) starting from home by a car which has a mileage such that the car can travel 10 km in 1 liter petrol. Distance between city A and B is twice the distance between home to city A. Distance between city B and C is thrice the distance between home to city A. Distance between city C and D is 100. Distance between city D and E is 1.5 times than the distance between B and C. Average distance traveled by Mohan was 41 km between five cities. Find how much petrol was needed by Mohan to travel from city B to D.
