Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book introduces readers to the fundamentals of descriptive geometry, a branch of mathematics that focuses on graphical methods to identify the size, shape, and position of objects in space. The author employs a first-quadrant projection technique, where the eye of the observer is assumed to be above a horizontal plane referred to as H and in front of a vertical plane called V. This allows for the creation of orthographic projectionsâ"drawings where projecting lines from all points of an object to the reference planes are parallel. Readers will discover how to project points, lines, and planes onto the H and V planes, leading to an understanding of their true lengths and angles. The book also delves into the intersection of planes and lines, providing methods for determining their points of intersection. By mastering these concepts, readers gain the ability to construct accurate representations of objects in space. The author grounds the subject in practical examples, enabling readers to visualize the principles and apply them to their own projects. These range from simple exercises to complex problems, offering readers the opportunity to reinforce their understanding and develop their skills. Overall, this book serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking to enhance their spatial reasoning abilities and gain a solid foundation in descriptive geometry. Its clear explanations, step-by-step instructions, and practical examples make it an accessible and engaging guide for students, engineers, architects, and anyone who wants to master the art of representing and analyzing objects in space. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330096338_0
