A cone base 75 mm diameter and axis 100 mm long, has its base on the HP.

A section plane parallel to one of the end generators and perpendicular to the FP cuts the cone intersecting the axis at a point 75 mm from the base. Draw the sectional Top View and the true shape of the section

The section plane is parallel to one of the end generators and perpendicular to the frontal plane It is therefore drawn in the Front View It cuts the axis at a point 75 mm from the base as shown in Front View T F True shape of section (parabola) Draw horizontal circles around the cone surface with center coinciding with the axis in the TV Project corresponding points of intersection of the circles with the section plane in FV to the TV

A pentagonal pyramid (side of base = 50 mm and height = 100 mm) is resting on its base on the ground with axis parallel to frontal plane and perpendicular to the top plane. One of the sides of the base is closer and parallel to the frontal plane. A vertical section plane cuts the pyramid at a distance of 15 mm from the axis with section plane making an angle of 50o with FP. Draw the remaining part of the pyramid and the true shape of the cut section

The pyramid is also cut by another plane that is perpendicular to the frontal plane, inclined at 70o to the top plane and cuts the axis of the pyramid at 15mm from the apex. Draw the projections of the remaining part of the pyramid and the true shape of the cut section

Since the section plane is perpendicular to the frontal plane, the section line is drawn in the front view

How to locate the point l

Draw an imaginary horizontal line from the axis (light blue) to the edge oc intersecting at z Project the point z into the Top view (oz is TL here) With o as center and oz as radius draw an arc cutting od at I This can also be done by projecting onto ob at y and rotating. l o y z c

b o

Basically the imaginary line with length oz = oy is rotating inside the pyramid from one edge to another

This can also be obtained by drawing a line from z in the Top view parallel to dc (as dc is TL here)

CONIC SECTIONS ELLIPSE, PARABOLA AND HYPERBOLA ARE CALLED CONIC SECTIONS BECAUSE THESE CURVES APPEAR ON THE SECTION OF A CONE WHEN IT IS CUT BY SOME TYPICAL CUTTING PLANES.

COMMON DEFINITION OF ELLIPSE, PARABOLA & HYPERBOLA: These are the loci of points moving in a plane such that the ratio of its distances from a fixed point And a fixed line always remains constant. The Ratio is called ECCENTRICITY. (E) A) For Ellipse E<1 B) For Parabola E=1 C) For Hyperbola E>1

Steps: 1. Draw both axes as perpendicular bisectors of each other & name their ends as shown. 2. Taking their intersecting point as a center, draw two concentric circles considering both as respective diameters. 3. Divide both circles in 12 equal parts & name as shown. 4. From all points of outer circle draw vertical lines downwards and upwards respectively. 5.From all points of inner circle draw horizontal lines to intersect those vertical lines. 6. Mark all intersecting points properly as those are the points on ellipse. 7. Join all these points along with the ends of both axes in smooth possible curve. It is required ellipse.

Steps: 1 Draw a rectangle taking major and minor axes as sides. 2. In this rectangle draw both axes as perpendicular bisectors of each other.. 3. For construction, select upper left part of rectangle. Divide vertical small side and horizontal long side into same number of equal parts.( here divided in four parts) 4. Name those as shown.. 5. Now join all vertical points 1,2,3,4, to the upper end of minor axis. And all horizontal points i.e.1,2,3,4 to the lower end of minor axis. 6. Then extend C-1 line upto D-1 and mark that point. Similarly extend C-2, C-3, C-4 lines up to D-2, D-3, & D-4 lines. 7. Mark all these points properly and join all along with ends A and D in smooth possible curve. Do similar construction in right side part.along with lower half of the rectangle.Join all points in smooth curve. It is required ellipse.
