Question

If an object is placed in 1st quadrant such that one of the surfaces of object is coinciding with both vertical plane and horizontal plane, what is the correct position of views from the following?

(a) The top view touches the reference line

(b) The top view and side view touch each other

(c) Both side views touch each other

(d) The top view and front touches each other at reference line

The question was posed to me in a national level competition.

I'd like to ask this question from First Angle Projection Method in portion Loci of Points & Orthographic Projections of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Right choice is (d) The top view and front touches each other at reference line

For explanation I would say: If the object is placed in 1st quadrant and the object’s surface is coinciding with both the horizontal plane and vertical plane which indirectly saying the distance from both the planes is zero so both top and front views of that object touches the reference line.
