Chapter 4
ellipse
A circle that is viewed at an angle appears as a(n) ______________________________.
regular
A closed geometric figure that has equal sides and equal angles is called a(n) ______________________________ polygon.
DONUT
A command that allows you to draw a filled circle is ________________________________.
fit points
A default spline is created by specifying ________________________________.
Tangent
A line that comes into contact with a circle at only one point is said to be ______________________________ to the circle.
Polyline
A polygon consists of a(n) ______________________________, which is a series of lines that constitutes a single AutoCAD object.
Circumscribed
A polygon that is created around the outside of a circle and is tangent to the circle is said to be ______________________________ about the circle.
fillet
A rounded interior corner is known as a ___________________________.
Polyline
A single AutoCAD object that may consist of multiple arc and line segments is a(n) ______________________________.
Hexagon
A six-sided regular polygon is called a(n) ______________________________.
Chamfer
A small angled surface used to relieve a sharp corner is known as a _________________.
No clue lol
If two circles touch at only one point, the point at which they touch is called the point of ______________________________.
Start, End, Angle
If you know that an arc with an included angle of 15° needs to begin at the end of an existing line and end at the center point of a circle, which ARC option would you use to create the arc?
F
T or F: An inscribed polygon is one that is drawn outside an imaginary circle so that the sides of the polygon are tangent to the circle.
T
T or F: An object created using the RECTANGLE command that has sides of equal length is a regular polygon.
T
T or F: Rectangles can be drawn at any angle.
F
T or F: The most convenient way to draw most arcs is to draw a circle and then erase part of it.
F
T or F: To continue an arc from the endpoint of a previously drawn arc or line, you should use the Previous option of the ARC command.
T
T or F: When drawing an arc, you can press [Ctrl] to reverse the direction if the arc is forming in the incorrect clockwise or counterclockwise direction.
F
T or F: When you use the Area option of the RECTANGLE command, AutoCAD calculates the length and width of the rectangle automatically.
T
T or F: After you pick the center point for a circle, a rubberband line appears to help you decide where to place the circle.
T
T or F: Once activated, the DONUT command remains active until you cancel it.
T
T or F: The Deferred Tangent feature that enables the Tan, Tan, Radius option of the CIRCLE command to work is an example of an object snap.
T
T or F: When you enter the radius for a circle, the value you enter becomes the new default value.
NURBS
The SPLINE command creates a type of curve called a(n) ______________________________ curve.
major and minor
The two axes of an ellipse are known as the ____________________________ axes.
Width
To change the line width of a rectangle during its creation, you can use the ____________________ option.
Tapered
To create a ______________________________ polyline, use different values for the starting and ending widths.
0
To create a completely filled circle using the DONUT command, specify a value of ______________________________ for the inside diameter.
rotation
To create an ellipse to represent a circle that is rotated 30° from the line of sight, use the ______________________________ option of the ELLIPSE command.
8
To create an octagon using the POLYGON command, how many sides should you specify?
Arc
To create only a portion of an ellipse, you should use the ______________________________ option of the ELLIPSE command.
Fillet
To create rounded corners on a rectangle, use the ______________________________ option of the RECTANGLE command.
F
To draw a polygon using the Edge option, you must specify the center point of the polygon.
included
To use the Start, Center, Angle option of the ARC command, you need to know the ______________________________ angle of the arc.
Center, Radius
What is not a valid option for creating an arc?
diameter
When you draw a circle using the 2-Point option, the two points you select define the circle's ____________________________________.
SPLINE
Which command cannot be used to create a rectangle?
PLINE
Which command is used to create a polyline?
ERASE
Which of the following commands does not display a rubberband line while the command is active?
Tan, Tan, Tan
Which option allows you to draw a circle tangent to three existing objects?
1-point
Which option is not a valid option for creating a circle?
