Question

A hexagon is placed perpendicular to profile plane and inclined to horizontal plane which of the following is true.

(a) Front view-line, top view- hexagon

(b) Front view- hexagon, top view- line

(c) Front view –line, top view-line

(d) Top view-hexagon, side view- line

The question was asked in an interview.

I need to ask this question from Projection of Planes Inclined to one of the Reference Plane & Perpendicular to other in portion Projection of Planes of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

The correct option is (d) Top view-hexagon, side view- line

For explanation I would say: When a plane is perpendicular to one of the reference planes and inclined to the other, its inclination is shown by an angle which its projection on the plane to which it is perpendicular, makes with xy. Its projection on the plane to which it is inclined is smaller than the plane itself.
