A steep triangular hillside drainage ditch carries 0.06 m³/sec to the bottom where the slopeabruptly transitions to nearly horizontal. If the depth y at the end of the slope is 0.1 m and usingthe hydraulic jump reference from the course handouts, sketch the channel cross-section andprofile and calculate the minimum safe side wall distance x (i.e. length of diagonal).
