Geometric and Engineering Drawing Lecture Review

These flashcards cover important terminology and concepts related to geometric and engineering drawing.

Geometric Drawing

The process of creating representations of shapes and figures using specific geometric principles.

Scales

Tools or ratios that allow for the representation of different sizes of objects on paper.

Isometric Projection

A method for visually representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions, where all axes are drawn at equal angles.

Orthographic Projection

A method that allows for the representation of three-dimensional objects with multiple two-dimensional views.

Tangent

A straight line that touches a curve at a single point without crossing it.

Locus

The path traced by a point that moves under defined conditions.

Conic Sections

Figures such as ellipses, parabolas, and hyperbolas created by intersecting a plane with a cone.

Radial Symmetry

A symmetrical arrangement of parts around a central point.

Fillet Curve

A rounded interior or exterior intersection between two surfaces.

Projection Lines

Lines used to project points from one view to another in orthographic drawing.
