Geometric Constraints

What is the purpose of applying geometric constraints in Autodesk Inventor?

• To make the sketch look more interesting

• To add random shapes to the sketch

• To define the relationships between different geometric elements in a sketch or model

• To create unnecessary complexity in the model

Which geometric constraint is used to ensure that two lines remain parallel to each other?

• angle constraint

• perpendicular constraint

• curved constraint

• parallel constraint

How do you apply a coincident constraint between two points in Autodesk Inventor?

• Use the 'Constrain' tool and select the two points

• Use the 'Extrude' tool and select the two points

• Use the 'Pattern' tool and select the two points

• Use the 'Sketch' tool and draw a line between the two points

What is the difference between a tangent and a perpendicular constraint in Autodesk Inventor?

• Tangent constraint forces curves to remain tangent, while perpendicular constraint forces lines to be perpendicular.

• Tangent constraint forces curves to be straight, while perpendicular constraint forces lines to be curved.

• Tangent constraint forces lines to be perpendicular, while perpendicular constraint forces curves to remain tangent.

• Tangent constraint forces curves to remain perpendicular, while perpendicular constraint forces lines to be tangent.

When should you use a colinear constraint in Autodesk Inventor?

• When you want to make the lines or edges parallel

• When you want to align two or more lines or edges in a straight line

• When you want to create a 90-degree angle between lines

• When you want to make the lines or edges curve

Explain the process of applying a concentric constraint between two circles in Autodesk Inventor.

• Select one circle and use the 'Concentric' constraint to align its center with the circumference of the other circle

• Use the 'Tangent' constraint to connect the two circles at their edges

• Select the two circles and use the 'Concentric' constraint to align their centers.

• Manually adjust the position of one circle to make it concentric with the other circle

What are the steps to apply an equal constraint between two line segments in Autodesk Inventor?

• Use the 'Parallel' constraint tool in the 'Constrain' panel.

• Use the 'Equal' constraint tool in the 'Constrain' panel.

• Use the 'Symmetry' constraint tool in the 'Constrain' panel.

• Use the 'Tangent' constraint tool in the 'Constrain' panel.

How do you apply a symmetric constraint to a line in Autodesk Inventor?

• Use the 'Perpendicular' constraint

• Use the 'Parallel' constraint

• Use the 'Symmetry' constraint

• Use the 'Tangent' constraint

What is the purpose of applying an angular constraint in Autodesk Inventor?

• To add a texture to the selected entities

• To increase the size of the selected entities

• To control the angle between two selected entities

• To change the color of the selected entities

Which constraint would you use to lock an object so it cannot be moved or changed?

• horizontal

• lock

• coincident

• fix
