Question

The question figure shows the 3D view of an object. Identify the correct view looking in the direction of arrow.

• A.

  

• B.

  

• C.

  

• D.

  

Hint:

The arrow looks at the right-hand face, so the cylinder (which sticks out to the left of that face) is seen sideways as a rectangle at mid-height of the block, and every change of surface (wedge base, rounded bottom edge) shows as a line.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The arrow is perpendicular to the right-hand face of the block, so the cylinder, whose axis is perpendicular to the arrow, is seen sideways as a rectangle on the left side of the view.
1. The cylinder is centred on the height of the block, so the rectangle sits at mid-height, not at the top.
2. The raised rear wedge appears as a narrower rectangle at the top right, and a line separates it from the main block.
3. The rounded lower edge of the block is drawn as one more horizontal line near the bottom of the view.
Option (1) has the cylinder at the top and no bottom line, option (2) has no separating lines at all, and option (4) has a differently proportioned block with the cylinder high up. Option (3) shows the cylinder at mid-height, the line under the wedge and the bottom line.
Answer: (3) the third view
