How can you manipulate a path/line in Illustrator? Discuss the use of the white arrow tool, pen+, pen-, and convert too.
There are many ways to manipulate lines that are created with the arrow tool. You can use the white arrow tools to move the anchor points on the line. The pen + tool will add an anchor point while the pen - tool will get rid of an anchor point. The convert too will change the anchor points and the shape of the line.

How can you utilize the layers palette in Illustrator? You can use the layers palette to edit an image and it will help keep the lines or shapes on their own layers so they can be deleted or edited without altering other object unintentionally.

How do you create a clipping mask in Adobe Illustrator? In illustrator, to make a clipping mask, you have to select an object then bring that object to the front. Once the object is in the front, you go to the object file at the top of the page and once it opens, select "create clipping mask".
