Question

An object is kept in one of the quadrants of principal planes of projection, for the front view the view is first and object is next and for top view the object came first and then the view on plane (the observer is at top right side of principal planes). The object is in which quadrant?

(a) 1st quadrant

(b) 2nd quadrant

(c) 3rd quadrant

(d) 4th quadrant

The question was asked in final exam.

My question is from Planes of Projections and Four Quadrants topic in chapter Loci of Points & Orthographic Projections of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

The correct option is (b) 2nd quadrant

To elaborate: If we imagine the principal planes and the observer at top right side of those planes we can clearly watch the positions of object with respect to their view. Here the object is in 2nd quadrant so view will come first for front view and object will come first for top view.
