How it will be more or less on inclined plane?

In upper direction gravity opposite to velocity & in downward in the direction & it helps & that's why more than.

In vertical direction velocity component is v sin* but in horizontal direction velocity component is vcos*. Hence cos*<sin* if we increase the angle upto 90 degree.

Gravity helps to increase speed in downward direction.

Projectile means any particle moves in space under gravity.

This can be easily explained with diagrams.
It's quite obvious that when the ANGLE OF PROJECTION IS SAME, the range of the projectile is more when the inclination is downwards than when the inclination is upwards.
The upwards inclination already reduces the distance the body can travel when projected as compared to a downwards inclination.
Just employ imagination and diagrams. Better still, try it out on a hill.

In upward rmax is u^2/g(1+sinx) where denominator is large but,
In downward it is u^2/g(1+sinx).
In downward it is u^2/g(1+sinx).
