2. A triangular plane lamina of sides 30 mm is resting on HP with one of its corner touching it, such
that the side opposite to the corner on which it rest is 20 mm above HP and makes an angle of 30 0
with HP. Draw the top and front views in this position. Also determine the inclination of the lamina
to the reference plane.
