Question and options

Which of the following sketching techniques is the most suitable for explosion cases?
  1. Baseline
  2. Triangular
  3. Rectangular
  4. Polar

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D - Polar
The polar coordinate method (angle and distance from a central point) suits explosion scenes, where debris radiates from a seat of explosion. Baseline and rectangular methods suit scenes with a straight reference line or walls, and triangulation needs two fixed points for every item.
