If there is no scale on the page, what function do you use to set the scale using a known dimension?

• A. Calibrate
• B. Measure
• C. Align
• D. Snap

Answer: (A)

When there’s no scale on the page, you establish the drawing’s scale with the calibrate function. Calibrate lets you define the real-world distance by selecting a known measurement on the page and entering its actual length. Once calibration is done, all subsequent measurements use that scale and yield true-world units instead of on-page units. The other options don’t set the scale: measuring is what you do after the scale is set, aligning is about lining up pages or markups, and snapping helps place items precisely but doesn’t establish scale.
