Question

A point in 2^nd quadrant is 15 cm away from both the horizontal plane and vertical plane and orthographic projections are drawn. The distance between the points formed by front view and top view is _________

(a) 0

(b) 30

(c) 15

(d) 15+ distance from a profile

I had been asked this question by my college director while I was bunking the class.

The question is from Projection of Points in Second Quadrant in section Projection of Points of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Right answer is (a) 0

For explanation I would say: Given the point is in 2^nd quadrant. While drawing orthographic projections the front view and top view overlaps and also the distance of point is same from planes of projections so the distance between them is zero.
