Interposition, also known as overlap, refers to the visual cue where one object obstructs or partly covers another object, providing information about their relative distance from the viewer. In this scenario, the mound is partially blocking the flag that indicates the location of the hole, leading the golfer to conclude that the hole is farther away than the mound. This is an example of interposition as the golfer is using the visual cue of one object (mound) overlapping another object (flag) to perceive depth and distance.
