Q.13) All other forms can be understood to be a transformation of the primary solids, variations which are generated by the manipulation of one or more dimension or by the addition or subtraction of elements 

What type of form transformation in the figure shown above?

A. dimensional transformation (Your Answer)

Page 4: Theory by Mariel

B. subtractive transformation

C. additive transformation

D. none

ExplanationNOTE: A form can be transformed by altering one or more of its dimension and stillretain it's identity as a member of a family of forms. A cube, for example, can be transformed into similar prismatic forms through a discrete changes in height, width or length. It can be compressed into a planer form or be stretched out into a linear one.

Q.14)

What type of form transformation in the figure shown above?A. dimensional transformationB. subtractive transformation (Your Answer)

C. additive transformationD. noneExplanationNOTE: A form can be transformed by subtracting a portion of its volume. Depending on the extent of the subtractive process, the form can retain its initial identity or be transformed into a form of another family. For example, a cube can retain its identity as a cube even thought a portion of it is removed, or be transformed into a series of regular polyhedrons that begin to approximate sphere.

Q.15)

What type of form transformation in the figure shown above?

A. dimensional transformation

B. subtractive transformation

C. additive transformation (Your Answer)

D. none

ExplanationNOTE: A form can be transformed by the addition of elements to its volume. The nature of the additive process and the number of relative sizes of the elements being attached determine whether

Page 5: Theory by Mariel

the identity of the initial form is altered or retained.
