Question

A regular pentagon prism first placed in such a way its axis is perpendicular to V.P and one edge is parallel to H.P and next this is tilted such that its axis is making some acute angle with V.P. The front view for previous and later one will be ____________________

(a) pentagon, pentagon

(b) rectangle, pentagon

(c) pentagon, irregular hexagon

(d) irregular hexagon, pentagon

I had been asked this question in homework.

The origin of the question is Projections of Solids with Axis Inclined to Vertical Plane and Parallel to Horizontal Plane in portion Projection of Solids of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Right choice is (c) pentagon, irregular hexagon

To elaborate: For given positions of solid the solid is made acute angle with V.P and previously given the axis is perpendicular to V.P so the front view gives the pentagon and next with some given angle shape will change to irregular hexagon.
