Q.

The length of line placed in profile plane and making an angle of 155 degrees with the horizontal is 3 cm from top view. What is the actual length?

A. 3.31 cm
B. 7.09 cm
C. 1.26 cm
D. 2.7 cm
Answer» A. 3.31 cm
Explanation: the line is making 155 degrees is equal to the line making 25 degrees as 180- 155 =25. the length of line from top view will be cosine of actual length. l * cosine (25) =3 cm, l= 3/ cosine (25)= 3.31 cm.
