  2. Cross section (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_section_(geometry)

    If a plane intersects a solid (a 3-dimensional object), then the region common to the plane and the solid is called a cross-section of the solid. [1] A plane containing a cross-section of the solid may be referred to as a cutting plane. The shape of the cross-section of a solid may depend upon the orientation of the cutting plane to the solid ...

  3. Isometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometric_projection

    The term "isometric" comes from the Greek for "equal measure", reflecting that the scale along each axis of the projection is the same (unlike some other forms of graphical projection). An isometric view of an object can be obtained by choosing the viewing direction such that the angles between the projections of the x , y , and z axes are all ...

    A section of a tangent vector bundle is a vector field. A vector bundle over a base with section . In the mathematical field of topology, a section (or cross section) [1] of a fiber bundle is a continuous right inverse of the projection function.

    1. A cone and a cylinder have radius r and height h. 2. The volume ratio is maintained when the height is scaled to h' = r √ π. 3. Decompose it into thin slices. 4. Using Cavalieri's principle, reshape each slice into a square of the same area. 5. The pyramid is replicated twice. 6. Combining them into a cube shows that the volume ratio is 1:3.

  6. Multiview orthographic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiview_orthographic...

    A section, or cross-section, is a view of a 3-dimensional object from the position of a plane through the object. A section is a common method of depicting the internal arrangement of a 3-dimensional object in two dimensions. It is often used in technical drawing and is traditionally crosshatched. The style of crosshatching often indicates the ...
