Subject : it-skills
Instructions:
  • Answer 46 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. A two dimensional drawing of the front - top - and side views of an object






2. To flip a shape over a line of symmetry and double the image.






3. Amount of money that clients have to spend on cost of building






4. Exact drawing representation of a given thread type






5. Used in AutoCAD to show various materials in sectional drawings






6. Gradual diminution of width or thickness in an elongated object.






7. Horizontal section through building - shows width and depth of building






8. A straight line passing from side to side through the center of a circle or sphere.






9. A quadrilateral whose opposite sides are both parallel and equal in length






10. The sum of all the areas of all surfaces of a solid.






11. Mass divided by volume.






12. An orthographic drawing of multiple parts that shows relationship of parts to each other in a mechanism






13. A conical-shaped recess around a hole - often used to receive a tapered screw.






14. Simple method of drawing threads on an orthographic drawing






15. To cut internal threads.






16. Used to represent visible lines on a drawing






17. Used by architect to design buildings to the client's wants and needs






18. User coordinate system - used in the construction of 3D solids in AutoCAD






19. A regular oval shape traced by a point moving in a plane so that the sum of its distances from two other points is constant.






20. To draw a figure inside another touching it at points but not cutting it.






21. The amount of matter an object contains.






22. Three dimensional drawing where the front faces forward - and the depth dimensions go back at angles - usually 15 - 30 - or 45 degrees. Used when most information on drawing is on the front of the object.






23. A line used to represent the middle of a circle in engineering drawings






24. A manufacturing process that forces material through a shaped opening.






25. Used in architecture to show exterior views of buildings






26. A small angled surface formed between two surfaces.






27. Used to define specific size requirements of openings in the building






28. The amount of space occupied by a substance or object or enclosed within a container.






29. To draw a figure around another touching it at points but not cutting it.






30. Nominal size of a framing member






31. An estimated cost used by architects to begin schematic design process






32. For a three-dimensional object - a line that cannot be seen because view of it is obstructed by part of the object or of another object






33. Three dimensional drawing that depth lines disappear to a vanishing point. Used mainly in architectural presentations






34. Vertical cut through house - used to show construction components of building






35. A document that show the quantity of each type of direct material required to make a product






36. Pictorial drawing of mechanism to show how parts interrelated to each other






37. A cylindrical recess around a hole - usually to receive a bolt head or nut






38. Three dimensional drawing made up of equal angles of 120 degrees - most common 3-D drawing used in industry






39. Actual size of framing member






40. Turning around an axis or center point.






41. A straight line from the center to the circumference of a circle or sphere.






42. Counter space requirements on either side of sink






43. Used to make lines of varying colors and widths on CAD drawings






44. Constant - non-numerical relationships between the parts of a geometric figure. Examples include parallel - perpendicular - and concentric.






45. Used in perspectives for determining the direction of the depth lines






46. A drawing that shows an object as it appears to the human eye - includes isometric and perspective drawings
