33
What is projection?
2 dimensional display of a 3 dimensional object
34
__________ is used in detail drawings, easily dimensioned and often used the most to manufacture parts. Up to 6 views as well as auxiliary views if there is more explanation of detail needed.
Orthographic projection
35
What is the principle view?
The principle view is the face of am object that gives the most info about the parts dimensions, main shape and key features.

Isometric drawings/projection
37
_________ are drawings how the eye sees an object. Can be drawn in one, two and three point form.
Perspective
38
______ is similar to isometric however, one base dimension is parallel to base line, others draw at 30 to 60 degree angles
Oblique projection
39
______ show how a part or assembly is installed on an aircraft or within its system.
