3 Midterm Exam Questions 1. If you use Divide command and nothing seems to happen, what should you do to make the points visible? Answer. Because the default setting for setting points is one pixel dot, you may need to access the Point Style dialog to increase the point style size. 2. What command can you use to place point objects that mark 24 equal segments on a line? Answer. You can use Divide command to place point objects that mark 24 equal segments on a line. 3. What is the difference between Divide and Measure Commands? Answer. The Measure command does not break an object at specific lengths and Divide command does. 4. What command let you to access Point Style dialog box? DDPTYPE 5. How do you draw a single point, and how do you draw multiple points? Answer. To place a single point object and then exit the Point command, enter Point or PO at the keyboard. To draw multiple points without exiting the Point command, access the Multiple Points function from the ribbon. 6. Which command removes all width characteristics and tangency information from a polyline? Answer. The Explode command. 7. Write the command aliases for the following commands: - Chamfer - Fillet - Break - Trim - Extend - Scale 8. What command would you use to reduce the size of an entire drawing by one-half? Answer. Scale command 9. Which command performs the opposite function of the Extend command? Answer. The Trim command 10. What command you can use to combine two collinear lines into a single line object? Answer. Join command. 11. True or False. The drawing files have a.dwt extension. (False) 12. The tool will open the layer properties Manager palette. (Layer) 13. What value should you specify for the angle to fill to create a complete circular array? ( 360 degree ) 14. Which command allows you to draw a reflected image of an existing object? (Mirror command) 15. How you can split an object in two without removing a portion? Break command 16. How do you specify the size of the fillet? (Radius option) 17. In the table below record the relative distance and angle to the next point.

4 18. Which Steering Wheels navigation tools can be used in 2D drafting applications? Answer. Zoom, Center, Pan, and Rewind 19. Should you draw on layer 0? Explain. Answer. No. Although layer 0 is the default layer when you start a new drawing, you should draw on layers you create other than layer 0. Layer 0 is primarily reserved for the creation of block symbols. 20. What is the function of the linetype scale? Answer. The linetype scale sets the lengths of dashes and spaces in linetypes. 21. How do you activate the Object Snap shortcut menu? Answer: Hold down the [Shift] key, and then right-click with a mouse. 22. List two ways to establish an offset distance using the OFFSET tool. Answer: Enter the desired distance or pick a point through which the parallel object can be drawn. 23. Name the tool that allows you to draw infinite construction lines. Answer: XLINE 24. List two methods of aligning the views in a multiview drawing. Answer: Using construction lines and object snap tracking. 25. Define stacked objects. Answer: Stacked objects are objects that overlap one another in a 2D drawing.

5 26. Identify the following linetypes. Answers: A. object line (or visible line) B. hidden line C. centerline (or symmetry line) D. extension line E. dimension line F. leader line G. section line H. cutting-plane line (or viewing-plane line) I. break line J. phantom line
