Projections of solids

1. A hexagonal prism, base 40 mm side and 60 mm long rests on the H.P on

one of its edges of the base. Draw the projections of the prism when its axis
makes 30 degrees with HRP and edge of the base which is on the HP
makes 45 degrees with FRP. ( Dec 1985)
2. A hexagonal prism base 20 mm side and axis 50 mm long rests on the HP
on one of its edges of the base. Draw the projections of the prism when its
axis makes 40 degrees with HRP and edge of the base which is on the
ground makes 30 degree with FRP. ( Dec 1984)
3. A tetrahedron 60 mm side, is resting on one of its edges such that the edge
makes 45 degrees to FRP and the face containing that edge makes 60
degrees to HRP . Draw the projections ( Nov 1986).
4. a tetrahedron 50 mm long is kept on the HP on one of its slant edges with
the face containing that edge making 45 degrees with HP the edge on the
HP makes 45 degrees with FRP. Draw the projections of the pyramid if the
apex is away from the observer ( May 1990).
5. A cone of base dia. 60 mm & height of axis 80 mm rests on the HP. On its
curved surface such that the top view of the axis make s 60 degrees to
FRP. Complete the projections if its apex is nearer to the observer than the
base. ( may 1987)
6. A pentagonal pyramid , base 45 mm & axis 65 mm long rests on one of its
base edges such that the axis makes 30 to HRP %& the edge on which it
rests makes 45 degree to FRP. Draw the projections if the apex is away
from the observer. ( May 1988).
7. A pentagonal pyramid 25 mm base & 60 mm height of axis is resting on one
of its base edges such that axis makes 30 degree to HRP & the edge on
which it rests makes 45 degree to FRP. Draw projections if the apex is away
from the observer. (May 1993).

8. A hexagonal pyramid of side of base 30 mm & height of the axis 70 mm is

resting on one of its base edges on HP. It is fitted such that the apex is 60
mm above the ground and goes away from the observer. If the axis of
pyramid remains parallel to the profile plane complete the projections. (DEC
1988).
9. A tetrahedron of 70 mm long has one edge parallel to HRP & inclined at 45
degrees to FRP while the face containing that edge is vertical. Draw its
projections. ( May 1989, May 1998).
10. A pentagonal pyramid base 30mm is resting on the HP on one of its base
corners such that the slant edge containing that corner is vertical and the
Top view of axis makes 45degrees with FRP . Draw the projections if the
apex is away from observer. (Dec 1989)
11. A 70 mm dia. spherical paper weight has a diameter 45mm flat base, it is
resting on one of the points on the circumference of the flat base such that
the flat base makes 30 degrees to HRP and is perpendicular to FRP. Draw
projection of the paper weight. (Dec 1991).
12. Three spheres of 60,40,& 25mm dia. Rest on the ground such that each
sphere touches the other two. Draw projections and show the points of
contact, if line joining the centers of the two bigger spheres is parallel to
FRP.(May 1992).
