look at the labeled tools provided in class (or in the cdx text). write the tool name that matches each description.

1. used for electrical wire repairs: ___
2. used to grind or smooth metal surfaces: ___
3. operated by compressed air to loosen bolts: ___

Explanation:

1. For the matching part, we match based on the function - descriptions of the tools. A battery charger recharges a discharged vehicle battery, an air ratchet is a pneumatic hand - tool for tightening or loosening bolts quickly, an air hammer is a pneumatic tool for cutting, shaping or chipping metal, an angle grinder is a power tool for grinding, cutting or polishing metal, and a soldering iron melts solder for joining electrical wires.
2. For Part 2, we would fill in the chart with known information about the tools' primary functions, common automotive uses and required personal protective equipment (PPE) or safety precautions.
3. For Part 3, we identify the tools based on their functions described in the questions. Soldering iron is for electrical wire repairs, angle grinder is for grinding or smoothing metal surfaces, and air ratchet is operated by compressed air to loosen bolts.
