Graphics

Question 1

this is the three-dimensional geometry - forming the background for practical applications of the graphic language and through which many of its problems may be solved graphically.

Answer 1

Descriptive Geometry

Question 2

these terms properly apply only to a drawing made with drawing instruments. The use of “mechanical drawing” to denote all industrial drawings is unfortunate not only because such drawings are not always mechanically drawn, but also because that usage tends the belittle the broad scope of the graphic language by naming it superficially for its principal mode of execution.

Answer 2

Instrumental Drawing and Mechanical Drawing
