Chapter 12

A drawing requires eight bolts arranged in a circular fashion around a central axis, and you have already drawn one bolt. The most efficient way to create and place the remaining bolts is to use the ____ command.

Array

If you specify a negative rotation angle for an object, the object rotates counterclockwise.

False

To specify a mirror line, you must pick three points: the origin, the start point, and the endpoint.

False

The system variable that prevents text from being reversed when you use the MIRROR command is ______________________________.

MIRRTEXT

To draw a symmetrical assembly, you can draw one-half of the assembly and use the ____ command to reflect the first half to create the second half.

Mirror

Which command would you use to change the location of an object in a drawing without otherwise changing the object in any way?

Move

If you are creating a polar array of rectangles and you want to keep the same side of each object facing toward the center point of the array, you must specify to ______________________________ the objects as they are arrayed.

ROTate

An array that contains rows and columns is a ____ array.

Rectangular

To change the calculation of points along a spline so that the start point becomes the endpoint and the endpoint becomes the start point, use the ____ command.

Reverse

Which of the following commands can copy an object and rotate it in a single operation?

Rotate

It is possible to copy an object and rotate it in a single operation.

True

The COPY command's Multiple mode is active by default.

True

The REVERSE command and the Reverse option of the PEDIT command have the same effect on a polyline.

True

To use the ROTATE command, you must specify a base point and a(n) ______________________________.

angle

The point, or axis, around which an object is rotated is its ______________________________ point.

base

For 2D ALIGN operations, you need three source points and three destination points.

false

Once activated, the MOVE command remains active until you exit the command.

false

The row spacing required for rectangular arrays specifies the space between the objects.

false

An array that consists of a circular pattern of objects is a(n) ______________________________ array.

polar

To change the size of an object during an ALIGN operation, use the ALIGN command's ______________________________ option.

scale?mi

A mirror line can be placed at any angle.

true

By default, text is not mirrored during a mirror operation.

true

Once activated, the COPY command remains in operation until you end the command.

true

The Displacement option of the MOVE command allows you to move the object relative to its current location.

true

The ARRAYPATH command allows you to array objects along all of the following objects except a(n) ____.

xline

A rectangular or circular pattern of objects is known as a(n) ______________________________.

Array

Which of the following commands requires multiple source points and destination points?

copy (wrong) move? (wrong)

In an ALIGN operation, the points you select to define the object's new position are called the ______________________________ points.

destination

The column spacing for an array operation specifies the ____.

distances between the same point on each object

The line of symmetry about which objects are mirrored is called a(n) ______________________________ line.

mirror

In an ALIGN operation, the points you select to define the object's original position are called the ______________________________ points.

source

Reversing the order of calculation of a polyline also reverses any text associated with the polyline.

true

When you use the COPY command to place a copy of an object, the original object remains in place.

true

You can use any of the selection options or techniques to select objects to be moved using the MOVE command.

true
