Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

In perspective drawing, a shadow vanishing point (SVP) is used, which is the location to which shadow outlines converge. It may or may not be on the perspective drawing's horizon line.
Also, shadow shapes converge to the same vanishing points as their casting objects.

In paraline drawing, the following steps are used:
1 . Draw a pictorial of the casting object
2 . Draw horizontal lines from the casting object's edges to represent the surface on which the shadow will be cast
3 . Choose an angle for the light ray
4 . Intersect the horizontal lines with the light ray lines
