Question

The question figure shows the 3D view of an object. Identify the correct top view.

• A. Option 1
• B. Option 2
• C. Option 3
• D. Option 4

Hint:

For top-view questions, imagine removing the height of the object and looking only at its shadow on the ground.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept:
A top view shows the outline and cut-outs visible when the object is viewed from directly above.
Heights are ignored; only the horizontal footprint matters.
Recesses or steps that are open at the top must appear as cut-outs in the top view. Step-by-step analysis:
The object has an overall rectangular base.
There is a central rectangular cut-out open from the top, which must appear clearly in the top view.
A raised block is present at the back portion of the object; from the top, this appears as a horizontal strip. Comparison with options:
Option (A): Shows incorrect placement of the raised portion.
Option (B): The cut-out size and position do not match the object.
Option (C): Correctly shows:
The full rectangular outline,
The horizontal strip due to the raised block,
The central rectangular cut-out.
Option (D): The cut-out does not align with the object's structure. Hence, the correct top view of the given 3D object is Option (C).
