Images and Video Worksheet

Problem 1

Find an image and copy it to the 'images' folder that was included in your starter files for this course (the starter files were all put in a folder named 'web-programming'). Then add an IMG element below that displays the image. Make sure to set the alt attribute, and you may set the width attribute if you like.

Problem 2

Why is it important to use small file sizes for images (image files that are small in kilobytes)?

Small file sizes help web pages load faster, improve user experience, reduce bandwidth usage, and make sites more accessible on slow internet connections or mobile devices.

Problem 3

If you want an image to have a transparent background, what type of image should it be (what file extension would you use)?

You should use a PNG image because it supports transparency.

Problem 4

What are responsive images?

Responsive images automatically adjust their size and resolution based on the device's screen size and capabilities, ensuring optimal display and performance across all devices.

Problem 5

Find another image and copy it to the 'images' folder. Then add an IMG element below that displays the image. Make sure to set the width and alt attributes. Turn the image into a link by nesting it within an A element. Clicking on the image should open up google.com in a new browser tab.

Problem 6

Find a video on YouTube that you like, and embed it into this page.
