From which direction is a plan view seen?
Hint
Plan is another name for top view.
Stage 8 - Q2 - 2 marks
A cuboid is 15 cm long, 9 cm deep and 6 cm high. State its front dimensions.
Hint
Depth disappears when viewing directly from the front.
Stage 8 - Q3 - 2 marks
At scale 1 : 3, what drawing length represents 21 cm?
Hint
One drawing unit represents three actual units.
Stage 8 - Q4 - 2 marks
A vertical cylinder has radius 5 cm and height 12 cm. State its front-view dimensions.
Hint
A side-on cylinder shows its diameter.
Stage 8 - Q5 - 3 marks
Draw all three views of this cuboid at scale 1 : 5 on separate squared paper.
Hint
Use one consistent scale for all views.
Stage 8 - Q6 - 3 marks
A room is 8 m long, 5 m wide and 3 m high. Find its three view dimensions at scale 1 : 100.
Hint
Convert metres to centimetres before applying the ratio.
Stage 8 - Q7 - 3 marks
A cuboid’s plan is 8 cm by 5 cm and its front is 8 cm by 3 cm, both at scale 1 : 10. Find the actual dimensions.
Hint
Match the dimension shared by the two views.
Stage 8 - Q8 - 3 marks
A triangular prism has a right-triangular front with base 6 cm and height 8 cm, and depth 12 cm. Describe its plan and front at scale 1 : 2.
Hint
The triangular end is explicitly the front.
Stage 8 - Q9 - 4 marks
Two cuboids have identical front and right views drawn at the same scale. Must their plan outlines match? Explain.
Hint
Ask which dimensions each view fixes.
Stage 8 - Q10 - 5 marks
Challenge: the front of a cuboid is 6 cm by 2 cm at scale 1 : 20. Its plan is 2.4 cm by 1.6 cm at scale 1 : 50. Find the actual dimensions and the right view at scale 1 : 10. Check the shared length.
Hint
Recover actual dimensions separately from each scale before combining the views.
