| A feature control _______ is a rectangular compartment that contains a divided series of symbols identifying geometric tolerance. | frame |
| Which of the following is true of dimensions? | Dimensions should be placed so theat no scaling of the drawing is necessary. |
| Dimension lines and extension lines are drawn to the same line weight as _____lines. | center |
| When arranging dimensions on a drawing, _____ dimension should be placed farthest from the view. | overall |
| ______ inch dimensioning is most common in mechanical drafting | Decimal |
| ______ dimensions are placed horizontally to read from the bottom of the drawing. _______ dimensions are placed parallel to the dimension lines. | 1. Unidirectional 2. aligned |
| A leader is drawn as an inclined line with a small horizontal tail called a _____. | shoulder |
| _________ dimensions is a method in which several dimensions are placed in a straight line along an object to describe successive features. | Chain |
| Arcs are dimensioned by giving the ______. The capital letter _______ indicates that the dimension is a radius. | 1. radius 2. R |
| Define chain dimensioning. | Placing several dimensions in a straight line along an object to describe successive features. |
| When associated with the diameter of a circle, a leader always points to what? | The primary center of the diameter. |
| When dimensioning the multiview drawing of a cylinder, the diameter and length should be dimensioned in which view? | the secondary view |
| Define dual dimensioning. | Dual dimensioning is a method in which drawings are dimensioned in both inch and metric units. |
| A(n) is an exact point, axis, plane, or surface from which features of a part are located. | datum |
| Explain the different types of units used to express angular dimensions. | Angular dimensions are expressed in degrees and decimal parts of a degree or in degrees, minutes, and seconds. |
