Q

What is an ellipse?

A

Plane surface bounded by a curved line described by two points in such a manner that the sum of the distances from every point in the curve to the two fixed points, or foci is always the same

Q

What’s baseline?

A

The bottom edge of the elevation view

17
Q

What happens when a baseline is projected out and measured?

A

Becomes the stretch out line (finish line)

18
Q

What’s a cheek?

A

The flat side of a rectangular elbow or fitting

19
Q

What are element lines?

A

Imaginary lines used to divide an object into sections when developing patterns for round or irregular shaped projects

20
Q

What’s half pattern?

A

Generally a gross pattern that represents half of the pattern to be made, to help save space with large patterns

21
Q

What’s the heel and throat?

A

Outside of the elbow is the heel and the inside of the elbow is the throat

22
Q

What is layout?

A

The process of measuring and marking lines on metal that are to be cut, drilled, or bent

23
Q

What’s oblique?

A

To have a slanting position that is neither vertical or horizontal (anything not 90°)

24
Q

What is parallel line development?

A

A system or lines drawn parallel and perpendicular to one another, used for solids that have a constant cross section and are equal in shape and size throughout their length

25
What is plan view?
View seen from the top or bottom of an object
26
Projection lines are?
Used in the development of a pattern that are projected at 90° to the element lines
27
What’s radial line development?
Used to develop patterns for object that’s have a tapering form with lines converging at a common centre
28
Stretch out line is?
A projected line of the baseline of the elevation view, all elements are measured along this line equal to the circumference or perimeter of the object required
29
What are dividers for?
To step off equal measurements or to transfer measurements
