Question

A line AB is placed in such a way that the distance from A and B to vertical plane are 5 and 10 cm and distances from A and B to horizontal plane are 5 and 10 cm each. The traces would present ______________

(a) one on above and other below reference line

(b) below the reference line

(c) on xy reference line

(d) above the reference line

This question was addressed to me in unit test.

The above asked question is from Traces of a Line in portion Projection of Lines of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Correct option is (c) on xy reference line

Explanation: As the corresponding distances from vertical plane and horizontal plane are same we can say the line may act as symmetry for both the vertical and horizontal plane so the traces would fall on xy reference line.
