Answer to Question 1

APO

Rationale: Projection describes how the beam passes through the part. With the patient in an RPO position, the beam will pass through anterior to posterior (AP) and with the patient's body rotated, the projection is an AP oblique (APO).

Answer to Question 2

all of these answers apply

Rationale: The AP oblique foot with medial rotation will cause cuneiforms 1 and 2 to superimpose, the metatarsal shafts 2-5 to be near equally spaced, the cuboid and its articulations open, and the base of the 5th metatarsal.
