Geometric Construction

As an engineering student, during the construction process, should you need to indicate the BORDER LINES on a drawing - What type of line would you use?

• C - Type line/s
• A - Type line/s
• B - Type line/s

When an Engineer decides to layout a drawing, of something such as a house - What element/construction method does he/she use to represent a large area in reality on a relatively smaller sheet of paper?

• Reduction process
• Shrinking
• Scale 

What does the scale shown below indicate?
2 : 1

• The working drawing size will be 2 times larger than the given dimensions
• The working drawing size will be 2 times smaller than the given dimensions

As an Engineering student, what piece of drawing of drawing equipment is meant to be used to construct ALL working drawings (with the exception of freehand drawings)?

• Drawing board, clutch pencil and a 60 degree set square.
• Drawing board, clutch pencil, and a 45-degree set square.
• Drawing board, clutch pencil and a T-Square.
• Drawing board, clutch pencil and a compass.

In E.G.D, learners make use of several line types - What line type would be used to show construction detail?

• B -Type line/s
• A - Types line/s
• C - Type line/s
• Hidden detail

True or False. the scale 1:1 indicates that the drawing will be constructed to the same dimensions as indicated on the original drawing. 

• True
• False

True or False. In E.G.D, it is compulsory that ALL written information be printed in CAPITAL LETTERS. 

• True
• False

True or False. Hidden detail lines indicate components in a working mechanism that are visible from all angles (this being the front, side, and top view/s).

• True 
• False

True or False. The scale 1:5 indicates that the construction of the working drawing will be reduced 5 times when drawn, in comparison to its original dimensions. 

• True
• False

True or False. Centre lines indicate the origin/starting point of any circular shape component - such as a circle or arc - in the construction process. 

• True 
• False
