Vector vs Bitmap Graphics Quiz

What is the fundamental difference between vector and bitmap graphics?

• Vector graphics are made of pixels, while bitmap graphics use mathematical equations.

• Vector graphics use paths and mathematical formulas, while bitmap graphics consist of pixels.

• Bitmap graphics are resolution-independent, whereas vector graphics depend on resolution.

• Bitmap graphics scale without losing quality, whereas vector graphics become pixelated.

Which of the following is NOT an advantage of vector graphics over bitmap graphics?

• They can be scaled without losing quality.

• They allow for precise control over shapes and lines.

• They support highly detailed photographic images efficiently.

• They typically have smaller file sizes for simple designs.

Which of the following software is commonly used for creating vector graphics?

• Adobe Photoshop

• Adobe Illustrator

• Microsoft Paint

• GIMP

Why do bitmap images lose quality when enlarged?

• They consist of a fixed number of pixels, so enlarging spreads pixels over a larger area.

• They are stored using mathematical equations that break down when scaled.

• Bitmap images only support black and white, limiting their scalability.

• They rely on complex metadata that does not scale well.

Which scenario best justifies using vector graphics instead of bitmap graphics?

• Creating a digital painting with realistic shading.

• Designing a company logo that must be used in different sizes.

• Editing a high-resolution photograph for a magazine.

• Creating a detailed 3D rendering for an animation.

Which of the following file formats are commonly used for vector graphics?

• PNG, BMP, GIF

• SVG, EPS, PDF

• MP4, AVI, MOV

• PSD, TIFF, JPEG

What is a key limitation of vector graphics?

• They are unsuitable for highly detailed images like photographs.

• They cannot be resized without loss of quality.

• They require much larger file sizes than bitmaps.

• They are not supported by modern web browsers.

A logo is being designed for use on business cards and billboards. Which file format is best suited?

• JPEG

• PNG

• EPS

• BMP

How do vector graphics store image information?

• As a grid of pixels with colour data assigned to each pixel.

• As a series of mathematical instructions defining shapes, colours, and curves.

• As a collection of compressed pixel data to reduce file size.

• As a layered bitmap format that preserves details when resized.

What happens when you resize a bitmap image to twice its original size?

• It remains the same quality due to interpolation.

• It becomes pixelated because the pixels are stretched.

• It increases in resolution and sharpness automatically.

• It converts into a vector image to maintain quality.
