Expert Solution
Step 1

PROGRAM STRUCTURE:

  • Start the definition of function to perform the binary search on the sorted array in descending order.
  • Declare and initialize the required variables.
  • Use the loop to check whether the value of start is less than end.
  • Calculate the value of mid.
  • Check using the if condition that whether the searched element is equal to the array at mid index.
  • Return the value as -1 when the element is not found.
  • Start the definition of main function.
  • Declare the array.
  • Calculate the value of length of the array.
  • Call the function and display the result.
