A physical space of (0, 0) to (225, 125) in mm is to be displayed on screen with a resolution of 1280 x 1024 pixels with an aspect ratio of 1. Find the necessary mapping required from physical coordinates to pixels. Also determine the pixel coordinates (only end points and no interpolations) of a line whose physical coordinates of end points are (65, 55) and (160, 80). [16] 2. A scaling factor of 2 is applied in the Y direction while no scaling is applied in the X direction to the line whose two end points are at coordinates (1, 3) and (3, 6).

Let us assume that you are in an oce or a computer lab. If you look around you, there are many objects that serve as good CAD models. Classify each of the following objects as 21/2D, composite 21/2D, or 3D models: keyboard, mouse, mouse cable, computer monitor, printer, chair, computer tables, a cell phone, a printer cable, your backpack, trash paper basket, and computer-system box. [16] 2. Given three points P1 , P2 and P3 that belong to a geometric model and given three other points Q1 , Q2 and Q3 nd the transformation matrix [T] that: (a) Transforms P1 to Q1 (b) Transforms the direction of the vector (P2 - P1 ) into the direction of the vector (Q2 - Q1 ) (c) Transforms the plane of the three points P1 , P2 and P3 into the plane of Q1 , Q2 and Q3 .
