Answer to Question 1

the space between the radius and capitulum is open

Rationale: A properly positioned AP elbow places the humerus and forearm on the same plane in full extension. This will result in the humeroradial joint being open.

Answer to Question 2

all of these answers apply

Rationale: The image represents a perfect mediolateral projection of the knee. The knee is flexed properly as the patellofemoral joint is open. The condyles are superimposed which is attained with proper cephalic tube angle applied. The condyles are also superimposed indicating that there is no rotation.
