Question

The top views of 1^st, 2^nd and final stages of square prism, has its axis inclined at 45 degrees with H.P and has an edge of its base on H.P and inclined 30 degrees with V.P while drawing orthographic projections are ______________

(a) Rectangle, rectangle, hexagon

(b) Square, rectangle, rectangle

(c) Rectangle, rectangle, octagon

(d) Square, rectangle, hexagon

I had been asked this question during an online interview.

My question is based upon Projection of Solids with Axes Inclined to both Horizontal and Vertical Plane in portion Projection of Solids of Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Right option is (b) Square, rectangle, rectangle

To explain: As the 1^st stage is to keep the solid in simple position and given is top view it is square and then rotated to an angle of 45 degrees with H.P which gives rectangle and then rotating 30 degrees with V.P which gives again rectangle.
