Okay, let's solve this step-by-step:
* Given: Length of line AB (TL) = 90mm
θ (inclination with HP) = 45°
TV makes an angle of 60° with VP
* To find: Inclinations with planes (θ, Ø), projections of line AB
* Since θ is given as 45°, draw FV making an angle of 45° with XY line.
* TV makes an angle of 60° with VP. So draw TV making an angle of 60° with XY line.
* TV gives the length of TL when it is parallel to XY line. So TL = 90mm.
* This gives the projections of line AB.
1. ORTHOGRAPHIC PROJECTIONS
OF POINTS, LINES, PLANES, AND SOLIDS.
TO DRAW PROJECTIONS OF ANY OBJECT,
ONE MUST HAVE FOLLOWING INFORMATION
A) OBJECT
{ WITH IT’S DESCRIPTION, WELL DEFINED.}
B) OBSERVER
{ ALWAYS OBSERVING PERPENDICULAR TO RESP. REF.PLANE}.
C) LOCATION OF OBJECT,
{ MEANS IT’S POSITION WITH REFFERENCE TO H.P. & V.P.}
TERMS ‘ABOVE’ & ‘BELOW’ WITH RESPECTIVE TO H.P.
AND TERMS ‘INFRONT’ & ‘BEHIND’ WITH RESPECTIVE TO V.P
FORM 4 QUADRANTS.
OBJECTS CAN BE PLACED IN ANY ONE OF THESE 4 QUADRANTS.
IT IS INTERESTING TO LEARN THE EFFECT ON THE POSITIONS OF VIEWS ( FV, TV )
OF THE OBJECT WITH RESP. TO X-Y LINE, WHEN PLACED IN DIFFERENT QUADRANTS.
STUDY ILLUSTRATIONS GIVEN ON HEXT PAGES AND NOTE THE RESULTS.TO MAKE IT EASY
HERE A POINT A IS TAKEN AS AN OBJECT. BECAUSE IT’S ALL VIEWS ARE JUST POINTS.
2. NOTATIONS

5. Basic concepts for drawing projection of point
FV & TV of a point always lie in the same vertical line
FV of a point ‘P’ is represented by p’. It shows position of the point
with respect to HP.
If the point lies above HP, p’ lies above the XY line.
If the point lies in the HP, p’ lies on the XY line.
If the point lies below the HP, p’ lies below the XY line.
TV of a point ‘P’ is represented by p. It shows position of the point with
respect to VP.
If the point lies in front of VP, p lies below the XY line.
If the point lies in the VP, p lies on the XY line.
If the point lies behind the VP, p lies above the XY line.
