diameter and height 65 mm. The first cutting plane which is
perpendicular to the axis and parallel to the base, cut the cone 10
 mm away from the apex. The second cutting plane cuts the cone in
a manner perpendicular to its axis, 25° inclined to its base and
passing through one of the extremities of the base. Draw the
development of the lampshades lateral surface.

3. A vertical chimney of 400 mm diameter joins a roof of an industry,

sloping at 35o with the horizontal. The shortest portion over the roof
is 500 mm. Obtain the shape of the sheet metal from which the
chimney can be fabricated.

4. A pentagonal pyramid of base side 25 mm and altitude 50 mm rests

with a base edge parallel to VP and nearer to it. It is cut by a plane
perpendicular to VP and 35° inclined to HP and bisecting the axis.

of a cone having a base diameter 350 mm and top base diameter
600 mm. The height of the hopper is 600 mm. Use Scale 1:10.

3. A regular hexagonal prism of the side of base 30 mm and height 60

mm is resting vertically on its base on HP such that two of the sides
of the base are perpendicular to VP. It is cut by plane inclined at 35o
to HP and perpendicular to VP. The cutting plane bisects the axis of
the pyramid. Draw the isometric view of the truncated prism.

pyramid of side 80 mm at the bottom, 60 mm at the top and having
a height of 70 mm. Draw the isometric projection of the combination

GP and lies in the central plane which is 40 mm to the right of the
axis.

and height 60 mm when its rests on the ground plane (GP) in such
a way that the nearest edge of the base is parallel to and 20 mm
behind the picture plane (PP). The station point is situated at a
distance of 40 mm in front of the PP, 75 mm above the GP and lies
in a central plane which is 45 mm to the right of the axis of the prism.
3. Draw the perspective view of a cube of 40 mm side rests on ground
plane (GP) on a face such that a vertical face is parallel to and 10
mm infront of the picture plane (PP). The station point is 40 mm in
front of the PP, 50 mm above the GP and lies in the central plane
which is 65 mm to the right of the axis of the cube.
