How do you construct an auxiliary view that shows an inclined surface in true size without the aid of a glass cube?

What will be an ideal response?


To see a surface in true size and shape, you must view it from a plane that is parallel to the surface. Since this viewing plane is parallel to the surface, the edge view of the pane of glass defining the new view also will be parallel to the surface. Finally, the points on the surface will project perpendicularly into this new view, similar to the way points are projected perpendicularly from the front into the top view (or from the front into the side view).
