1In Creo Parametric Sketcher, what does it mean when a sketch entity and its dimensions appear in the system's default color indicating it is fully constrained?
A.The sketch contains conflicting constraints
B.The sketch references an external assembly component
C.The sketch has no degrees of freedom remaining and its geometry is fully defined
D.The sketch is under-constrained and free to move
Explanation: A fully constrained (fully defined) sketch has all degrees of freedom removed through a combination of constraints and dimensions, so no entity can move unexpectedly. This is the desired state before exiting Sketcher to capture stable design intent. Under-constrained sketches leave geometry free to drag.
2Which Sketcher constraint forces two separate line entities to share the same slope so they remain parallel?
A.Perpendicular
B.Tangent
C.Equal length
D.Parallel
Explanation: The Parallel constraint makes two lines maintain the same orientation (slope) relative to each other, removing the rotational degree of freedom between them. It is one of the core geometric constraints used to capture design intent without explicit angular dimensions.
3When you sketch a centerline through the origin in Sketcher and then mirror entities about it, what is the primary benefit for the resulting feature?
A.It converts the sketch to a surface
B.It automatically creates a revolve feature
C.It reduces the file size of the part
D.It guarantees symmetry so both halves update together when dimensions change
Explanation: Mirroring sketch entities about a centerline creates symmetric geometry linked by the mirror relationship, so editing one side automatically updates the other. This captures symmetry as design intent and reduces the number of dimensions you must manage.
4A weak dimension in Creo Sketcher is displayed in a lighter color. What happens to a weak dimension when you add your own strong dimension that conflicts with it?
A.The weak dimension is converted to a constraint
B.Creo prompts you to resolve a conflict and delete one
C.The weak dimension is automatically removed without conflict
D.Creo locks the sketch and disables editing
Explanation: Weak dimensions are auto-generated placeholders Creo supplies to keep a sketch solvable. When you add a strong dimension that supplies the same constraint, Creo silently removes the redundant weak dimension because strong dimensions take priority. Only when strong dimensions over-constrain does a conflict dialog appear.
5In Sketcher, which tool projects the edges of an existing model surface or feature onto the current sketching plane so the sketch references that geometry?
A.Thicken
B.Palette
C.Offset
D.Project
Explanation: The Project tool copies existing edges or surface boundaries directly onto the sketch plane, creating sketch entities that reference the parent geometry. Because they are referenced, the projected entities update if the parent changes, preserving associativity.
6Which statement best describes the purpose of a construction (centerline or construction circle) entity in Creo Sketcher?
A.It can only be created as a straight line
B.It becomes solid material when the feature is created
C.It is a reference geometry used for dimensioning, mirroring, or alignment but not for solid boundaries
D.It must always be dimensioned before any other entity
Explanation: Construction geometry exists only to aid the sketch, such as serving as a mirror axis, dimensioning reference, or alignment guide. It is excluded from the feature's solid boundary, so it never becomes material when the feature regenerates.
7You need to dimension the included angle between two non-parallel lines in Sketcher. After selecting both lines with the dimension tool, what determines the angle value Creo displays?
A.The color of the sketch entities
B.The active layer of the sketch
C.The order in which the part was saved
D.Where you click to place the dimension, which selects which of the four angular regions is measured
Explanation: When dimensioning an angle between two lines, the location where you place the dimension determines which of the four angular regions (the acute or obtuse, on either side) is measured. Clicking inside the desired region tells Creo which angle to report.
8In Creo Sketcher, what is the effect of applying the Coincident constraint between a sketch point and a datum axis projected into the sketch plane?
A.The axis is hidden
B.The point becomes a construction circle
C.The point is forced to lie on the axis location
D.The point is deleted
Explanation: The Coincident constraint forces two references to occupy the same location, so a sketch point constrained coincident with a projected datum axis snaps onto that axis position. This is commonly used to align sketch geometry with existing model references.
9Which Sketcher tool would you use to round a sharp corner formed by two intersecting lines, automatically trimming the corner and inserting a tangent arc?
A.Corner (Trim)
B.Chamfer
C.Fillet (Circular)
D.Divide
Explanation: The Sketcher Fillet tool inserts a tangent arc between two intersecting entities and trims the original corner, producing a rounded transition with a definable radius. It is the 2D sketch equivalent of preparing geometry for a rounded feature.
10When entering Sketcher to create a feature, Creo asks you to select a sketch plane and an orientation reference. What is the role of the orientation reference?
A.It controls the part's mass properties
B.It defines the material assignment
C.It sets which direction in the sketch faces a chosen direction (e.g., top, bottom, left, right)
D.It determines the extrude depth
Explanation: The orientation reference, combined with a direction choice such as top, bottom, left, or right, fixes how the sketch plane is rotated when you view it head-on. This ensures predictable up/down and left/right orientation of your sketch relative to the model.
