What does CAD stand for?

• Coins and Dollars

• Cats and dogs

• Computer Aided Design

• Computers Are Deleted

T/F: You need a workplane to start any 3D design.

• True

• False

The 3 axes are _, _, _.

(a)  

The_ axis is the height off of the workplane.

• x

• y

• z

What is the first step in creating a 3D design?

• Export as an STL

• Group the shapes

• Place a shape on the workplane

• Align the shapes

In 3D design, what does it mean to "scale" an object?

• Climb on it.

• Change the color

• Change the size and proportions.

• Change the size but keep the proportions.

To align objects means to...

• arrange in a straight line on an axis.

• arrange diagonally.

• change the shape of an object.

To start building a 3D design, you need a primitive (a)   .

Group means to...

• Change the size of an object.

• Connect many shapes into one compound shape.

• Disconnect shapes into primitive shapes.

What is the difference between flip and rotate?

• Nothing. They are the same.

• Flip is a mirror image, rotate is moving along a central point.

• Flip is moving along a central point, rotate is a mirror image.

• Flip is moving, rotate is resizing.
