604. Descriptive Geometry. [Thornton.]

The fundamental problems on the point, line, and plane are carefully
studied, with applications to the construction of shadows on polyhedra and
to the graphical statics of force-systems in three dimensions. The projections,
tangencies, sections, and intersections of curved surfaces are then
taken up, with applications to the determination of shades and shadows on
such surfaces. The course concludes with an elementary theory of linear
perspective. (Spring.)
