1. A square prism of base side 40mm and axis length 65mm is resting on HP on its base with all the vertical faces
being equally inclined to VP. It is cut by an inclined plane 60deg. to HP & perpendicular to VP and is passing through
a point on the axis at a distance 15mm from the top face. Draw the development of the lower portion of the prism.
2.A cube of a side 40mm is resting on HP with its base on HP such that one of its vertical faces is inclined at 30deg. to
the VP. It is cut by a section plane perpendicular to VP, inclined to HP at an angle of 45deg. and passes through the
midpoint of the axis. Draw the development of the lateral surface of the cube.

3.A rectangular prism of base 40mm x 25mm & height 65mm rests on its base with the longer base side inclined at
30deg. tp VP. It is cut by a plane inclined at 40deg to HP, perpendicular to VP cuts the axis at its mid height.
4.A hexagonal prism of base side 20mm & height 50mm is resting on HP on its base, such that one of its base edge is
parallel to VP. The prism is cut in this position as shown in the following front view fig.1. Draw the development of
the lateral surface of the prism.

5.A square pyramid base of 40mm side and axis 65mm ong has its base on HP & all the edges of the base are equally
inclined to VP. It is cut by an inclined section plane so as the truncated surface at 45deg. to its axis, bisecting it. Draw
the development of the truncated pyramid.

7. A regular pentagonal pyramid of side of base 35mm & altitude 65mm has its base on HP with a side of base
perpendicular to VP. The pyramid is cut by a section plane which is perpendicular to the VP & inclined at the 30degto
HP. The cutting plane meets the axis of the pyramid at a point 30mm below the vertex. Obtain the development of the
remaining part of the pyramid.
8. A hexagonal pyramid of 30mm base sides with a side of base parallel to VP. Draw the development of the lateral
surfaces of the retained portions of the pyramid cut by two perpendicular planes shown by dark lines in the figure.3.
