Where a feature (hole) departs from MMC, an increase in the perpendicularity tolerance zone is allowed equal to the amount of departure.

MMC

Maximum Material Condition; a feature size where it contains the maximum amount of material within the stated limits of size.

Perpendicularity

The state or condition of being perpendicular, meaning two lines or planes intersect at a right angle (90 degrees) to each other.

  • Explain the effect of material condition modifiers on the size of the tolerance zone.

Final Answer :
True
Explanation :
This statement is true according to the rules of geometric tolerancing. When a feature departs from its maximum material condition (MMC), the tolerance zone for perpendicularity can be increased by an amount equal to the departure from MMC. This allows for some variation in the feature without compromising its functional requirements.
