The engineering design process follows the same steps as the scientific discovery process, or
scientific method. True?
- No; I would say there are major differences
- Yes; they are essentially the same - ANS No; I would say there are major differences
Descriptive geometry is described in the book and video lecture in relation to:
- Eucledian geometry
- Geometry as a means of computation and analysis
-Derivation and construction of tangent arcs
- Geometry applied to the description of three-dimensional shapes - ANS Geometry as a
means of computation and analysis

- t-square - ANS Fountain pen
An engineering drawing can be considered a legally binding document. True?
- Yes
- No - ANS Yes
The term "IPS" in SolidWorks refers to ...
- Measurement units
- Drawing standard
- Portrait/landscape orientation
- Available memory - ANS Measurement units
To create an extrusion, I must first draw a sketch on a surface. True?
- Yes, but the surface must be flat
- No, do not need a sketch
- Yes, any surface - ANS Yes, but the surface must be flat
The sketch below extrudes as...
, ( two separate rectangles)
- Well give an error or warning
- A single prism (the bigger one)
- Two prisms
- A single prism (the smaller one) - ANS Two prisms
The sketch below extrudes as...
(one small rectangle inside a big rectangle)
- A single prism (the smaller one)
- A single prism (the bigger one)
- A prism with a hole
- Two prisms
- Will give an error or warning - ANS A prism with a hole
To create a revolved feature, the profile and the axis of revolution must be coplanar. True?
- No
- Yes - ANS Yes
To create a solid revolution, I must...
- Make an axis in the sketch using a construction line
- Use reference geometry to make an axis
- Select a plain line from the sketch to use as an axis
- Any of the other choices will work - ANS Any of the other choices will work
These are the fundamental types of sketch constraints:
- Both geometrical and dimensional
- Geometrical
- Dimensional - ANS Both geometrical and dimensional
To clock a hexagon so that it rests horizontally on one side, I would...
- Apply a parallel constraint
- Any of the other choices will do; doesn`t really matter
- Apply a dimension
- Apply a horizontal constraint - ANS Any of the other choices will do; doesnt really matter
I have a distance in my sketch preceded by a "sigma" symbol. This means...
- The dimension has yet to be defined
- It is a dimension driven by a parametric formula
- There is an error with my dimension
- It is the sum of several other dimensions - ANS It is a dimension driven by a parametric
formula
To create the "wedge" homework, this is the best choice of technique:
- Use the chamfer feature
