How many points are in an inch? 72

How many points are in a pica? 12

Of the seven classifications, which classification(s) would best work as body type? Why? 
The Sans-Serif would work best as body type because this typeface is very popular throughout this century and easy to read. 

Identify the lowercase characters that have ascenders? b, d, f, h, i, j, k, l

Identify the lowercase characters that have descenders? g, j, p, q, y

Classify the following typefaces and briefly explain why you believe it should be classified that way:

This typeface would be classified as a historical typeface because the font is kind of like the Blackletter font and that was used in the old centuries. So I believe that this font falls under the history category. 

This typeface would be classified as a romantic typeface because it has loops and swashes and looks like cursive as well. This typeface is usually found in romantic books, movies, posters, or other types of social media.  

I would classify this typeface as a modern typeface because it looks like the Times New Roman font or Serif font and I think mostly everyone recognizes it. Teachers would usually ask their students to use this typeface for their research papers. 

This typeface reminds me of the Cambria font because it's simple yet easy to read. I would normally find this font in a New York Times magazine and in the 20th century.
