  7. Descriptive geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descriptive_geometry

    Descriptive geometry is the branch of geometry which allows the representation of three-dimensional objects in two dimensions by using a specific set of procedures. The resulting techniques are important for engineering, architecture, design and in art. [1] The theoretical basis for descriptive geometry is provided by planar geometric projections.
