What is the Geometric Constraint Symbol for Vertical?

Back

Vertical is a geometric constraint that indicates a line or object is oriented straight up and down.

Front

What are Orthographic Projections?

Back

Orthographic projections are a method of representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions, using multiple views such as top, front, and side.

Front

What is Isometric Projection?

Back

Isometric projection is a method for visually representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions, where the three axes are equally foreshortened.

Front

How do you calculate the number of line segments at a scale of 1:2 for a 3-foot line?

Back

At a scale of 1:2, each line segment represents 2 inches. A 3-foot line (36 inches) would require 36/2 = 18 line segments.

Front

What is the purpose of a top projection in technical drawing?

Back

The top projection provides a view of the object from above, allowing for a clear understanding of its layout and dimensions.

Front

Define Parallel lines in geometric terms.

Back

Parallel lines are lines in a plane that do not meet; they are always the same distance apart.

Front

What does the term 'Equal' mean in geometric constraints?

Back

Equal indicates that two or more elements are constrained to have the same length or size.

Front

What is the significance of the right projection in technical drawings?

Back

The right projection shows the object as viewed from the right side, providing additional detail and perspective.

Front

Explain the concept of scale in technical drawings.

Back

Scale is the ratio of the size of the drawing to the size of the actual object, allowing for accurate representation of dimensions.

Front

What is the difference between Isometric and Orthographic projections?

Back

Isometric projections show a 3D view with equal foreshortening, while orthographic projections show multiple 2D views from different angles.
