Question 1

When a surface feature is perpendicular to the line of sight, the feature is said to be foreshortened, or shorter than true length.

Accepted Answer

False

Question 2

The preferred practice is to align an auxiliary view with its principal view when possible, which generally makes it easier to read the print. However, there is an option to rotate an auxiliary view when the normal auxiliary view placement takes up too much space on the sheet. When this is done, a viewing-plane line is used to indicate from where the view is taken, and the auxiliary view is placed in any desired location on the sheet. The auxiliary view is rotated as needed and the angle and direction of rotation is specified under the view title.

Accepted Answer

The statement confirms the preferred practice of aligning an auxiliary view with its principal view, but also mentions the option of rotating an auxiliary view under certain circumstances.

Question 3

When it is not possible to align the auxiliary view directly from the inclined surface, then a viewing-plane line can be used and the view placed in a convenient location on the sheet.

Accepted Answer

When the auxiliary view cannot be aligned directly from the inclined surface, a viewing-plane line can be used to project the view onto a convenient location on the sheet.

Question 4

The viewing-plane line is labeled with numbers so the view can be clearly identified. This is especially important to observe when several viewing-plane lines are used to label different auxiliary views.

Accepted Answer

The answer of The viewing-plane line is labeled with numbers...

Question 5

Primary auxiliary views are views that take the place of a principal view.

Accepted Answer

Primary auxiliary views are not intended to replace principal views, but rather to supplement them and provide additional information about the object being viewed.

Question 6

The full auxiliary view shows the true size and shape of the inclined surface.

Accepted Answer

The answer of The full auxiliary view shows the true...

Question 7

The partial auxiliary view shows only the true size and shape of the inclined surface.

Accepted Answer

A partial auxiliary view is used to show the true size and shape of an inclined or oblique surface. It provides a more accurate representation than a regular projected view because it shows the surface in its true orientation.

Question 8

When multiple auxiliary views are shown on the print, the views are arranged from left to right and from top to bottom. The views are labeled to correlate with their viewing plane, such as VIEW A-A for the first view, VIEW B-B for the second view, and VIEW C-C for the third view.

Accepted Answer

This statement is correct. When multiple auxiliary views are shown on the print, they are arranged from left to right and top to bottom, and labeled according to their viewing plane (e.g. VIEW A-A, VIEW B-B, VIEW C-C, etc.).

Question 9

An auxiliary view is projected from the inclined surface in the view where the inclined surface appears as a:

Accepted Answer

An auxiliary view is used to accurately represent the true shape and size of an inclined surface, which appears as a line or edge in the view from which the auxiliary view is projected. This is because the inclined surface is not parallel to any of the principal planes of projection, resulting in its true shape not being visible in the primary views.

Question 10

The removed auxiliary views are placed in the same relationship as the viewing-plane lines read, and as if the auxiliary view were projected directly from the slanted surface.

Accepted Answer

According to the statement, the removed auxiliary views are placed in the same relationship as the viewing-plane lines read and projected directly from the slanted surface, which is true. Therefore, option A is correct.

Question 11

When a surface feature is not perpendicular to the line of sight, the feature is said to be:

Accepted Answer

When a surface feature is not perpendicular to the line of sight, it appears compressed or shortened in the direction of the line of sight, which is known as foreshortening. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Question 12

These views allow you to look directly at the inclined surface:

Accepted Answer

Auxiliary views are used to show an inclined or slanted surface in a way that it appears perpendicular to the viewer's eye. This provides a clear and accurate view of the surface without any distortion or skewing. Sectional view, front view, and side view do not necessarily allow for a direct view of inclined surfaces.

Question 13

These views are used to show the true size and shape of a surface that is not parallel to any of the six principal views.

Accepted Answer

Auxiliary views are used to show the true size and shape of a surface that is not parallel to any of the six principal views. They are created by projecting the surface onto a plane that is perpendicular to the surface and then aligning it with one of the principal views. This creates a new view that shows the surface's true shape and size.

Question 14

When necessary, auxiliary views can be found on a sheet other than where the viewing plane lines appear. The method for doing this is called cross-reference zoning and is used to indicate the location of a view back to the viewing location on a previous page. The auxiliary view is located on a different page and is labeled with the sheet number and zone of the cross-reference viewing plane.

Accepted Answer

This statement accurately describes the concept of cross-reference zoning in technical drawing.

Question 15

The auxiliary view can then be drawn in any convenient location at any desired scale.

Accepted Answer

This statement is true. Auxiliary views can be drawn in any convenient location and at any desired scale to provide additional detail and information.

Question 16

An auxiliary view allows you to look directly at the inclined surface.

Accepted Answer

An auxiliary view shows a 3D view of an object, often at an angle, and is used to clarify features that are not visible through standard orthographic views. It allows you to look directly at the inclined surface.

Question 17

A secondary auxiliary view is projected from a primary auxiliary view. The definition of secondary auxiliary view is a view that is adjacent to and projected from a primary auxiliary view or from another secondary auxiliary view.

Accepted Answer

The definition of a secondary auxiliary view is indeed a view that is adjacent to and projected from a primary auxiliary view or from another secondary auxiliary view.

Question 18

When the auxiliary view is completed, one projection line remains between the views to indicate alignment and view relationship.

Accepted Answer

This is true as the projection line helps to maintain the alignment and relationship between the views in a three-dimensional projection.

Question 19

Auxiliary views are used to show the true size and shape of a surface that is not parallel to any of the six principal views.

Accepted Answer

Auxiliary views are indeed used to show the true size and shape of surfaces that are not parallel to any of the six principal views. They are created by projecting the surface onto a plane that is perpendicular to it and then showing the resulting projection as a view. This allows for the accurate measurement and representation of angles and shapes that would be distorted in the standard views.

Question 20

When the reference arrow method is used, a viewing arrow with a view identification letter points to the location from where the view is taken. The auxiliary view is then placed in any desired location on the sheet and in the same orientation as the reference arrow. The view identification letter is placed above the auxiliary view.

Accepted Answer

This is an accurate description of the reference arrow method for creating auxiliary views.
