Q.	The straight lines which are drawn from various points on the contour of an object to meet a plane are called as
A.	connecting lines
B.	projectors
C.	perpendicular lines
D.	hidden lines.
Answer» B. projectors
Explanation: the object will generally kept at a distance from planes so to represent the shape in that view projectors are drawn perpendicular to plane in orthographic projection. projectors are simply called lines of sights when an observer looks towards an object from infinity.
