PROBLEMS INVOLVING TRACES OF THE LINE.
TRACES OF THE LINE:THESE ARE THE POINTS OF INTERSECTIONS OF A LINE ( OR ITS EXTENSION )
WITH RESPECTIVE REFFERENCE PLANES.
A LINE ITSELF OR ITS EXTENSION, WHERE EVER TOUCHES H.P.,
THAT POINT IS CALLED TRACE OF THE LINE ON H.P.( IT IS CALLED H.T.)
SIMILARLY, A LINE ITSELF OR ITS EXTENSION, WHERE EVER TOUCHES V.P.,
THAT POINT IS CALLED TRACE OF THE LINE ON V.P.( IT IS CALLED V.T.)
V.T.:-
It is a point on Vp.
Hence it is called Fv of a point in Vp.
Hence its Tv comes on XY line.( Here onward named as v
H.T.:-
It is a point on Hp.
Hence it is called Tv of a point in Hp.
