Question

A point is 15 cm away from the vertical plane and 10 cm away from profile plane and horizontal plane in 3rd quadrant then the projections are drawn on paper the distance between the front view and top view of point is _____________

(a) 27 cm

(b) 15 cm

(c) 12 cm

(d) 25 cm

I have been asked this question during an online interview.

Origin of the question is Projection of Points in Third Quadrant in section Projection of Points of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Right option is (d) 25 cm

The explanation is: Since the point is 10 cm away from the horizontal plane the distance from the point to xy reference line will be 10 cm. And then the point is at distance of 15 cm from the vertical plane the distance from reference line and point will be 15, sum is 25 cm.
