1. To store and display modeling information, AutoCAD® uses

1. cell decomposition.

2. boundary representations and sweeping.

3. constructive solid geometry.

4. pure primitive instancing.

2. Spatial occupancy enumeration is rarely used in CAD applications because it

1. requires a large amount of memory.

2. is not sufficiently accurate for CAD work.

3. requires an obscure operating system.

3 / 50

3. Solid models are used more frequently than surface models or wireframes because they

1. result in smaller files.

2. are more accurate.
