Select the one(s) that can be described as "feature"
All cuts, bosses, planes and sketches that you create.
Some features are based on sketches.
Some features are applied directly to exisiting geometry.
Features are characteristics of a part.
Select the one(s) that can be described as "plane".
Planes are flat.
Planes are represented on the screen with visible edges.
Planes are used as the primary sketch surface for creating boss and cut features.
Planes can fly.
Which one(s) is true for "extrusion"?
An extrusion will extend a profile along a path typically normal to the profile plane for some distance.
The movement along that path becomes the solid model.
Extrusion can only be solids that are added to the existing boss.
You can only create extrusion bosses when your sketch is in closed contour.
Select the one(s) that can be described as "sketch".
It is used to describe a 2D profile.
Sketches are created on flat faces and planes within the model.
Skeches are generally used as the basis for bosses and cuts.
Sketches need to be fully defined to create 3D bosses.
You need pencil and paper to sketch.
Which one(s) is/are true regards "boss"?
Bosses are used to subtract material to the model.
The critical initial feature is always a boss.
After the first feature, you may add as many bosses as needed to complete the design.
All bosses begin with a sketch.
Boss is someone in charge in an organization.
What is the difference between "Fillet" and "Round"?
"Round" is added to the sketch, not the solid. But "Fillet" is added to the solid, not the sketch.
"Fillet" adds material to the solid, whereas "Round" removes material from the solid.
"Fillet" is usually greater than "Round".
"Round" needs to be drawn, whereas "Fillet" is genearlly automatically.
What is considered as "Design Intent"?
relationships between features
sequence of the creation
sketches and features
dimensions
which relation below defines arcs/circles?
collinear
tangent
merge
coincident
How can you define two lines that are vertical to each other?
vertical
parallel
perpendicular
collinear
What relation does the image indicate?
merge
coincident
collinear
midpoint
Define the relation in the image.
(a)
Define the relation in the image.
(a)
What relation(s) is/are not needed to fully define the image?
tangent
perpendicular
parallel
merge
What would happen if your geometry is over-defined?
The line segments would turn red.
It will not be possible to generate 3D model.
The line segments would turn blue.
You can still generate 3D model, but the 3D model would be strange.
