Applet: Region bounded by planes demonstrating the shadow method
Applet loading
The region $\dlv$ is bounded by the vertical planes $x=0$, $y=1$, and $x=y$ and the angled planes $z=2+x-y$ and $z=x-y$. If the sun is viewed to be in the direction of the positive $z$-axis, the resulting shadow on a plane perpendicular to the $z$-axis is a triangle, as illustrated by the blue triangle below the region.

General information about three.js applets
The applet was made using three.js and requires Javascript as well as a browser that supports WebGL. For most three.js applets, you can drag with the mouse to rotate the view, drag with the right button to pan, and zoom in/out with the mouse wheel. Many applets contain points that you can drag to change values of variables.
