I guess I don't know this because I've never tried it. But, how does the
router determine where to send the packets for a route statement as
specified above (ip route a.b.c.d e.f.g.h f0/0) ?

When you setup a secondary ip on an interface
 int fa0/0
   ip address a.b.c.d e.f.g.h secondary

How does it determine where to send the packets?  ARP.
Which is the same as adding the route described above.


No it is not.  In this case you defined direct connection. IP does not know
about this direct connection without that.  Should you drop that secondary
line.
