A point is 5 units away from the vertical plane and 4 units away from ...
Since the point is 3 units away from the horizontal plane the distance from the point to xy reference line will be 3 units. And then the point is at distance of 5 units from the vertical plane the distance from reference line and point will be 5, sum is 8.

A point is 5 units away from the vertical plane and 4 units away from ...
To find the distance between the front view and top view of a point, we need to determine the coordinates of the point in 3D space and then project those coordinates onto the respective planes.
Let's assume the point is located at (x, y, z) in the 3D space. Given the information in the question, we know the following distances:
- The point is 5 units away from the vertical plane: This means the x-coordinate of the point is 5.
- The point is 4 units away from the profile plane: This means the y-coordinate of the point is 4.
- The point is 3 units away from the horizontal plane: This means the z-coordinate of the point is 3.
So, the coordinates of the point are (5, 4, 3).
Now, let's project this point onto the front view and top view planes.
- Front View Projection:
In the front view projection, the z-coordinate is ignored, so the point is projected onto the xy-plane. The x and y coordinates remain the same, so the front view projection of the point is (5, 4).
- Top View Projection:
In the top view projection, the y-coordinate is ignored, so the point is projected onto the xz-plane. The x and z coordinates remain the same, so the top view projection of the point is (5, 3).
Now, we can find the distance between the front view and top view of the point by calculating the distance between the projected points.
Using the distance formula, we have:
Distance = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
= sqrt((5 - 5)^2 + (4 - 3)^2)
= sqrt(0 + 1)
= sqrt(1)
= 1
Therefore, the distance between the front view and top view of the point is 1 unit.
The correct answer is option B) 1 unit.
