Diamond point chisels are best used for cutting _______________.

AV-grooves and inside sharp angles
Boil grooves in bearings
Ckeyways having square corners
Dholes through metal plate
AI Explanation

The correct answer is A) V-grooves and inside sharp angles. Diamond point chisels are best used for cutting V-grooves and inside sharp angles because their sharp, pointed tip allows them to effectively cut into these tight, angled spaces. The diamond shape of the chisel's cutting edge is well-suited for creating clean, precise V-shaped grooves and accessing confined areas. The other answer choices are not the best applications for diamond point chisels. Options B, C, and D involve cutting rectangular or circular shapes, which are better suited for flat-edged chisels rather than the pointed diamond shape.
