Study Notes

Objectives of Learning

  • Ability to draw orthogonal projections.
  • Skills to create plans and elevations of objects to scale.

Orthogonal Projections

  • Involves representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions through orthogonal views.
  • Emphasizes the importance of understanding the relationship between different views of an object.

Definition of a Plane

  • A plane is defined as a flat surface that can extend indefinitely in all directions.
  • Three types of planes are identified:
    • Horizontal Plane
    • Vertical Plane
    • Inclined Plane
  • A normal to a plane is a line that is perpendicular to any line on that plane, forming a right angle.

Example of a Right Cylinder

  • The example displayed illustrates a quarter of a right cylinder with a horizontal base labeled PQRS.
  • The base (PQRS) and the side surfaces (PSTU) are considered planes, while QRTU represents a curved surface.

Example of a Right Prism

  • A right prism is depicted with a horizontal base ABCD.
  • Vertical planes are denoted as ABF and CDE, with inclined planes labelled BCEF and ADEF.
  • Lines FM and EN are normals to plane ABCD, highlighting their perpendicular orientation to lines AB and CD.

Cube Example

  • A cube is presented, prompting the identification of the normal to specified planes:
    • PQRS
    • PSTU
    • RSTW
    • QRTU

Additional Right Prism Example

  • Another right prism features a rectangular base ABCD.
  • Midpoints M and N are noted on edges AB and CD respectively.
  • Given measurements indicate equal lengths (FG = EH = DN = NC = AM = MB) for specific segments, reinforcing symmetrical properties.
  • Questions encourage identification of normals to the following planes:
    • ABCD
    • ADEF

Quote Insight

  • Emphasizing a clear and logical teaching style, John Spencer advocates for a patient approach to facilitate student learning.
