Question

A point is in 2^nd quadrant which is 8 meters away from vertical and 6 meters away from profile plane. Orthographic projections are drawn. What is the distance from the side view to vertical reference line?

(a) 8

(b) 6

(c) 2

(d) Can’t found

This question was posed to me during an internship interview.

My question is based upon Projection of Points in Second Quadrant in chapter Projection of Points of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Correct answer is (a) 8

To explain I would say: Given the point is in 2^nd quadrant. The distance from the side view is given by distance between point and vertical plane here it is given 8 meters. And the distance from front view will be 6 meters.
