Representation of a point
To define the position of a point only 2 of its 4 projections are required. A’ Direct projection of the point.
A’1 Horizontal projection.
A’2 Vertical projection
A’3 Second vertical projection.

Representation of a line Line r’ is defined by 2 of its
projections, the other 2 can be obtained from these.
Data: r’ y r’1.
Find r’2 and r’3.
The traces are the intersections of the direct projection (r’) and the horizontal (H), vertical (V) and second vertical (W).
Hr’ intersection of lines r’ and r’1.
Vr’ intersection of r’ and r’2.
Wr’ intersection of r’ and r’3.

Representation of a plane It is represented by its traces.
The 3 traces cut in the axes in pairs.
These traces, when enlarged, form the Triangle of traces. Each of the vertex of the triangle are in the axes.
