A solid's plan shows a circle and its elevation a rectangle. The solid is

  • A.a cylinder with its axis horizontal
  • B.a cylinder with its axis vertical
  • C.a cone with its axis vertical
  • D.a sphere in any orientation

Answer: B

Correct answer: a cylinder with its axis vertical

A circular plan with a rectangular elevation is the signature of a cylinder standing on its base: the base circle projects at true size in the plan, and the elevation shows the diameter by the axis length. Lay the cylinder on its side and the two views exchange shapes, a cone would give a triangle, and a sphere a circle in both.
