Guaranteed Marks Plan

How to approach each part of the Computer Graphics exam for maximum marks.

Part A
25 MCQs ร— 1 = 25 marks
Target: 20โ€“23 / 25
  • DDA vs Bresenham's Line Algorithm โ€” properties & differences 6/6
  • 2D Transformation matrices โ€” Translation, Rotation, Scaling 6/6
  • Homogeneous coordinates concept 5/6
  • Cohen-Sutherland โ€” region codes & outcodes 6/6
  • Midpoint Circle Algorithm steps 5/6
  • Z-Buffer algorithm working principle 5/6
  • RGB vs CMY vs HSV colour models 5/6
  • Phong vs Gouraud shading differences 4/6
  • Types of projection โ€” Parallel vs Perspective 4/6
  • Bezier curve properties and degree 4/6
Part B
5 Questions ร— 8 = 40 marks
Target: 32โ€“40 / 40
QUnitExpected Topic
21U1Bresenham's Line / Circle derivation with worked example
22U22D or 3D Transformation โ€” full matrix derivation & numerical ๐Ÿ”ฅ
23U3Cohen-Sutherland Clipping โ€” numerical example with region codes ๐Ÿ”ฅ
24U3/U4Z-Buffer / Scan-line algorithm OR Phong Illumination Model
25U4/U5Colour Models OR Bezier/B-Spline Curve properties
Part C
1 Question ร— 10 = 10 marks
Target: 8โ€“10 / 10

Choose 1 of 2 questions. Typical options:

Q.26
3D Composite Transformations โ€” multi-step matrix multiplication ๐Ÿ”ฅ OR Sutherland-Hodgman Polygon Clipping โ€” full step-by-step
Q.27
Visible Surface Detection โ€” BSP Tree or Z-Buffer with diagram OR Ray Tracing / Illumination Model derivation
๐Ÿ’ก CGA Exam Secret: Always show the intermediate matrix steps and the final transformed coordinates. Even if the final answer is wrong, well-shown matrix setup earns 6โ€“7 out of 10 marks. Draw a diagram wherever possible!
