Another name for a fillet weld is called a/an:

1. Angle weld

2. Bevel weld

3. "L" weld

4. "T" weld

The correct answer is: Angle weld

A fillet weld is a weld joint where two materials are joined perpendicular to each other in a lap joint or a tee joint. The fillet weld is designed to fill the corner where the two pieces meet. The shape of the weld is triangular in cross-section, resembling a fillet (a rounded interior intersection of two surfaces). Therefore, another name for a fillet weld is an "Angle weld." The other options are not correct because: - A bevel weld refers to a type of weld where the material is prepared with a beveled edge to provide a groove for the weld filler material. - An "L" weld is not a commonly used term in welding and doesn't specifically describe the shape or purpose of a fillet weld. - A "T" weld is usually used to describe a weld at the intersection of two materials joining at a right angle, but it doesn't specifically refer to a fillet weld.
