    IThe miter is a joint between two pieces which come together at a corner. It isa finish joint and should not be used where strength is an important requirement. It ismade by cutting the two ends at angles complementary to each other, usually 45°, andthen butting them together. The joint is secured by clamp nails or finishing nails,corrugated fasteners or dowels, or by gluing.

    This is similar in shape and purpose to the rabbet joint. In the dado joint agroove is made in one piece at right angles to the grain of the other board. If nails areused, they are needed only at the end piece since the groove will provide the necessarystrength to hold the other piece in place.

    • Halved Joint.

    • Rabbet Joint

    • Dado Joint.

    • Miter Joint.

    Correct Answer
    A. Dado Joint.
    Explanation
    The dado joint is similar to the rabbet joint in shape and purpose. In a dado joint, a groove is made in one piece at right angles to the grain of the other board. This groove provides the necessary strength to hold the other piece in place, so nails are only needed at the end piece. The dado joint is commonly used in woodworking to create strong and secure connections between two pieces of wood.

    • Hollow Core Flush Doors

    • Solid Core Flush Doors

    • Wood Framed Flush Doors

    Correct Answer
    A. Hollow Core Flush Doors
    Explanation
    Hollow core flush doors are the correct answer because they are described as having a framework of stiles and rails encasing an expanded honeycomb core of corrugated fiberboard or a grid of interlocking horizontal and vertical wood strips. This description matches the characteristics of hollow core flush doors, which are lightweight and have a hollow interior. Solid core flush doors, on the other hand, are made of solid wood or a solid core material and do not have a hollow interior. Wood framed flush doors do not specifically mention the type of core material, so they are not the best fit for the given description.
