"The distance of A and B below H is indicated on the V projection. Thus if to A∧h B∧h the perpendiculars A∧h A;and;r and B∧h B∧r be drawn, A∧r B∧r will be the true length of A B." —French, 1911

"The H projection of the line AB in the space is a line connecting the feet of all the perpendiculars from AB to the plane. These perpendiculars form what is known as the projecting plane. If this projecting plane to be revolved about its H trace, which is the H projection of the line, until it coincides with H, the line will be seen in its true length." —French, 1911

"A block revolved from its first position about an axis perpendicular to H through 45 degrees, then about an axis perpendicular to P through 45 degrees until the cut face MNO is parallel to the vertical plane. To avoid confusion it is well to letter or number the corresponding points as the views are carried along." —French, 1911
