3.2. Plane traces
The lines in which a general plane intersects the planes of projection are termed the plane traces, and in ordinary practice are the means whereby
the plane is determined in position (Fig. 3.1).
Fig. 3.1. Plane traces
In the ordinary cases the plane has three traces: horizontal, frontal and profile (Table 3.1, Method 6).
When line МN lies in the plane α, it intersects the П1-plane in the point M that will lie on the trace h
1
α. The horizontal trace of line that lies in the
plane will lie on the horizontal trace of this plane.
When line МN lies in the plane α, it intersects the П2-plane in the point N that will lie on the trace f
2
α. The frontal trace of line that lies in the plane
will lie on the frontal trace of this plane.
Note: The traces of a line that lie in a plane will lie on the related plane traces. The plane traces may be defined by drawing the traces of line that are
determined this plane.
3.3. Points and lines are contained in plane
When two points of a line lie in a plane that line lies in that plane or is contained in that plane. Line MN is contained in the plane G, which is given
by traces, due to points M and N lie in the plane traces they lie in the plane α (Fig. 3.2, a). Line 1-2 has the common points with the triangle ABC, hence
line 1-2 lies in the plane, that is given by that triangle (Fig. 3.2, b).

Fig. 3.2. Point in the planes
When point lies on a line that is contained in a plane this point lies in that plane. Thus, it is necessary to draw the line (NM or 1-2), that will be
contained in the plane, and find the point on this line. This point (K) will lie in the plane (Fig. 3.2).
3.4. Position of a plane to the coordinate planes
A plane in space may assume the following general positions to the coordinate planes (Table 3.2) it may:
1) passes through the ground-line, giving no traces in two coordinate
planes, and hence indeterminable except by the use of a new vertical plane;
2) be parallel to one, given but two traces parallel to GL on that plane
to which it is not parallel (table 3.2, r. 4–6);
3) be parallel to GL and perpendicular to one plane and inclines to two
planes, when both traces will be parallel to that line;
4) be perpendicular to one of plane and inclines to two other planes
(Table 3.2, r. 1–3), when first trace will be inclined to GL and defined the true angles of it inclining to other planes, and two other traces be perpendicular to GL. These planes are termed projecting plane. When this plane perpendicular to the horizontal plane it is termed horizontal projecting plane, when it perpendicular to the vertical plane – frontal projecting plane, to the profile plane – profile projecting plane;
5) inclines to all planes, other than in the first and third cases, when all
traces will incline to GL.

3.5. The principle lines of a plane
There are a lot of lines lie in a plane in space, some of which are parallel to the coordinate planes, and some lines perpendicular to them (Fig. 3.3). Lines which are parallel to coordinate planes are termed principle lines, and ones perpendicular to them are termed lines of greatest declivity, which are measure the angle of the plane in space with either plane of projection.
Fig. 3.3. Horizontals of planes
Lines which are parallel to horizontal plane П1 are termed horizontals, ones are parallel to vertical plane П2 frontals, and lines which are parallel to profile plane П3 profiles.
Horizontals may be represented as lines of intersection of the general plane and any horizontal plane. That is why the horizontal trace can be associated as a horizontal at the zero-level. All horizontal projections of
horizontals are parallel to the horizontal trace of a plane, and their vertical projections are parallel to OX.

When the plane given by traces (Fig. 3.4, a), the vertical projection of horizontal (f2) is drawn as a line parallel to OX. Then the point of intersection that line and vertical trace of plane is found. This point is a piercing-trace of horizontal h – N=N2. In the next step the horizontal projection of the N-point is found as a point on the OX by fall perpendicular to the ground-line. Then horizontal projection of horizontal h is drawn as a line that is parallel to horizontal trace of the plane and passed through the Ni-point.

Fig. 3.4. Horizontals of planes
When the plane given by triangular (Fig. 3.4, b), the vertical projection of horizontal (f2) is drawn as a line parallel to OX and passed through any two points of the triangular. Then the horizontal projections of those points are obtained and the horizontal projection of horizontal is found.
LGO-line of greatest declivity

Frontals may be assumed as lines of intersection of the general plane and any vertical plane. Hence vertical trace can be found as a vertical at the zero-level. All vertical projections of frontals are parallel to the vertical trace of a plane, and their horizontal projections are parallel to OX.
The lines of greatest declivity are perpendicular to the respective traces. Thus (Fig. 3.5), the lines drawn perpendicular to the horizontal trace or horizontals of the planes measure the greatest declivity of the given plane with horizontal coordinate plane П1.
That is why, at first, horizontal of the plane is drawn, and then the line of greatest declivity is found as a perpendicular to the horizontal projection of horizontal.
3.6. Intersecting planes
The intersection of any two surfaces is determined, in general, by the aid of auxiliary secant planes, which pass through the surfaces and cut lines upon them. The point common to the lines thus cut is common to both surfaces and, hence, to their line of intersection.
When the intersecting surfaces are planes, the intersection is a right line, for determination of which two auxiliary secant planes will ordinarily prove sufficient. As we studied early, a line may be drawn when two its points, which are common to the intersecting planes, are found.
Let find the line of intersection between two planes (α and β), given by
their traces (Fig. 3.6).
Fig. 3.6. Intersecting planes in space
27
By the application of the preceding principles, the two coordinate planes may be considered as the auxiliary secant planes. Thus, П2 cuts the two given planes in the vertical traces, which intersect each other in N, while П1 cuts them in the traces αi and βi, which intersect in M (Fig. 3.7).
Fig. 3.7. Intersecting planes given by traces
But the points thus determined are the piercing-points of the line of intersection sought MN, the projections of which may be found in ordinary way.
3.7. The line and plane
When a line neither be parallel or lies in a given plane it intersects this plane. One of the main problems of descriptive geometry is to find the
piercing-point of a line on a given plane.
The solution consists in passing through the given line any auxiliary plane (Fig. 3.8), in determining the line in which this plane cuts the given plane, and in finding the point in which the given line intersects the lines thus determined. Projecting planes or planes that are parallel to coordinate planes are used as an auxiliary plane for these purposes.
28
Fig. 3.8. Line intersects a plane
The construction becomes extremely simple when auxiliary secant plane passing through the line is assumed to be the projecting plane of the line itself – to П1 (Fig. 3.9).
m ∩  = ? Solution
1) m Є β , β – horizontal projecting plane;
2)  = MN ;
3) MN ∩ m = K
Fig. 3.9. Intersecting the line and the plane given by traces
Find the line of intersection between the given plane α and the projecting
plane β, and the point (K), in which the line m in space intersects it, is its
piercing-point on the given plane.
29
The problem when a plane given by triangular is solved by the same method. In Fig. 3.10 the plane given by triangular ABC. The auxiliary plane α has been passed through the given line m perpendicular to П1. Secant plane cuts the triangular in a line 1-2.
Fig. 3.10. Intersecting the line
and the plane given by triangular
The point K in which lines m and 1-2 intersect is a point in the line of intersection sought. Then the line m visible is found using method of competing points. At first, the point 1 in the side AB of triangular lies higher then point 5 in the line m, thus the sector 5K of the line m in space lies lower then triangular, and this line m is invisible and its concealed sectors are drawn by a shot dash on each coordinate plane. Therefore, sector K4 of the line m places above the plane ABC and it visible sectors are drawn full.
3.8. The line is parallel to plane
When a given line is parallel to any line which lies in a plane, this given line is parallel to this plane (Fig. 3.11).
Let find the geometrical relation the given line AB and the given plane CDE (Fig. 3.12). The auxiliary secant plane Q is passed through the line AB perpendicular to H-plane.
30
Fig. 3.11. The line is parallel to plane
Fig. 3.12. The line is parallel to plane CDE
The line 1-2 is the line of two planes intersection. The correspondence projections of two line (AB and 1-2) are not parallel, thus the line AB is not parallel to plane CDE.
3.9. The line and plane are perpendicular
A right line perpendicular to a plane in space gives projections which are respectively perpendicular to the plane traces.
In Fig. 3.13 let plane α be the given plane, and AB a line perpendicular to it. The plane projecting AB upon H is not only perpendicular to that plane, but also to the given plane α; hence, being perpendicular to two planes, it is, by Geometry, perpendicular to their line of intersection П1, or the horizontal trace and horizontals.
