Which technique is NOT appropriate for a graduated cut?

  1. Cutting at zero degree elevation

  2. Cutting at forty-five degrees elevation

  3. Cutting at sixty degrees elevation

  4. Cutting at ninety degrees elevation

The correct answer is: Cutting at zero degree elevation

Cutting at zero degree elevation is not appropriate for a graduated cut because it will result in a blunt cut with no layers, which is the opposite of a graduated cut. Graduated cuts require layering and varying degrees of elevation to create a gradual increase or decrease in length. Cutting at forty-five, sixty, or ninety degrees elevation all involve layering and are suitable techniques for achieving a graduated cut.
