Performance should include reading drawings with metric dimensions and
- distinguishing between first-angle and third-angle projections
- converting to inch-based measurements
- making linear measurements with metric measuring tools
- converting between metric and U.S. customary system.
Process/Skill Questions:
- When is it necessary to convert U.S. customary system measurements to metric?
- Why is it necessary to know how to read a print with metric dimensions?
- What are some examples of metric measuring tools?
- What is the difference between a first-angle projection and a third-angle projection?
