Right Answer is: C

SOLUTION

Explanation:

Rake angle:

  • The angle between the face of the tool and a plane parallel to its base.
  • If this inclination is towards the shank, it is known as a back rake angle and if measured along with side is known as side rake angle.

Lip angle:

  • The angle between the face and flank of the tool.
  • As the lip angle increases, the cutting edge will go stronger.

Relief angle:

  • The angle formed between the flank of the tool and a perpendicular line drawn from the cutting point to the base of the tool.
