Excerpt from Elements of Descriptive Geometry: With Their Application to Spherical Trigonometry, Spherical Projections, and Warped Surfaces
The study of the Mathematics, whether considered as Ia troductory to its sister science, Mechanical Philosophy, or as a salutary and invigorating exercise of the mind, is equally worthy of attention. The useful and important results to which it leads, the mutual dependence of its parts, and the concise and satisfactory reasoning in the development of Its principles, recommend this study, as well to the practical man, who learns only what he can successfully apply, as to the lover of science, who explores all its departments in search of new facts and interesting truths.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explains the principles of descriptive geometry, a method used to create accurate geometrical representations on a plane from various angles. It is a useful tool for those working in architecture, engineering, and other areas that require precise graphical representations. The principles and processes involved are explained in depth with references to practical applications. The author includes solutions to various problems involving lines and planes, demonstrating the use of the principles in various scenarios. These include finding the shortest distance between a point and a line, drawing a plane through three points, and measuring the angle between two lines or planes. The author's approach favours simplicity, explaining complex concepts in a straightforward manner to enhance comprehension. By presenting a clear understanding of descriptive geometry, this book serves as a valuable resource for students and practitioners seeking to improve their skills in graphical representation and problem-solving.
