Question 2: The process of transforming a 2D world-coordinate object to device coordinates is termed as:

1. Window to Viewport Transformation
2. Viewing Transformation
3. Windowing Transformation
4. All of the above

Answer: d. All of the above

Explanation:

The process of mapping the window port to view port is termed as 'Window to view port Transformation'. It is also known as 'Viewing Transformation' or 'Windowing Transformation'.

Question 3: Can we represent multiple scenes from a real-world coordinate system on the viewport? If yes, how?

1. By using multiple viewports
2. By using multiple window ports
3. Both a. and b.
4. No, we cannot represent multiple scenes from a real-world coordinate system on the viewport

Answer: a. By using multiple viewports

Explanation:

To display different sections of the scene, we use multiple viewports so that different sections can be displayed on different parts of the screen.
