Question

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

(a) 1st quadrant

(b) 2nd quadrant

(c) 3rd quadrant

(d) 4th quadrant

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

This intriguing question originated from Planes of Projections and Four Quadrants topic in division Loci of Points & Orthographic Projections of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Right option is (c) 3rd quadrant

The best I can explain: If we imagine the principal planes and the observer at the top right side of those planes we can clearly watch the positions of object with respect to their view. Here the object is in 3rd quadrant so view will come first.
