| August 2013

Terms used in Projections of line

True length: actual length of a line
Plan Length: The apparent length of a line seen in TV
Elevation length or front view length
Side view length
Inclination with reference plane: Angle which the
line makes with its projection on that RP
Inclination with the HP(): True angle that a line
makes with its projection on the HP. Measured along
the plane containing the line and perpendicular to the
HP.

 Inclination with the VP ():

Inclination with the PP ()
Apparent angle with the HP (): Angle which an
oblique line seems to be making with the HP in
FV. Angle between FV and XY.
Apparent angle with the VP ()
Traces of a line: The points of intersection of the
line with the RPs . A line may have HT and VT.

Line inclined to one of the planes

A line AB 60 mm long has its end B 30 mm away from HP and 20 mm away
from VP. The line is parallel to VP and is inclined at 30 to the VP. Draw its
projections.
A line EF 50 mm long parallel to HP and inclined at 45 to VP, has its end E
10 mm behind the VP and 15 mm below HP. Assuming the line to be in third
quadrant. Draw its projections.

 Plan ab of a line AB measured 40 mm. The line is parallel to VP and

inclined to HP and 20 mm behind the VP. Draw its projections and
determine its true length. Assume line to be third quadrant.
A line AB has its end A 7 mm behind VP and 18 mm below HP and the
end B 38 mm behind the VP and 49 mm below the HP. The distance
between the end projectors of the line is 37 mm. Draw the projections
of the line and find out its true length and .
